A Sense Of Direction

I was looking into different ways to approach the topic I would like to cover. I've decided that I'm going to do something dealing with the mental illness, specifically eating disorders and how it affects people and things that promote and or influence it. I am aware that this is a harder topic and it requires a lot of work but I want to do something with it. I want to go into the psychology field and specialize in mental illness, so this could be beneficial. 

I have a source that is willing to help me, but wants to stay anonymous, and said that they could give insight to what it's like to struggle from an eating disorder and have self image issues. I would like to not base my project off of them, but use them along with information I gather online.
I spent this past week researching the different types of eating disorders and things that either promote it and or demote it. The media actually plays a part in eating disorders, showing stick thin actors and actresses on tv or in magazines, creates a thought process of thin is beautiful and if it's any other way, then you aren't acceptable. 
Nobody should think that.
