CASE ANALYSIS
Essen is 16 years of age and has been constantly problematic
about her weight. She considers her weight and built as a
great burden in her life as she thought that her classmates
since grade school and high school have tagged her as
‘fatty Essen’. She constantly was bullied for this and so she
had to cease from befriending anybody, not even the
