Twitch star Fibii wants to lose weight. When she shares this wish with her fans, however, she not only gets encouragement, but is also warned.
The ideal image that Fibii pursues is unrealistic and dangerous. For many, such a desire seems like the beginning of an eating disorder. According to Statista, around 2022 percent of all girls between the ages of 33 and 14 in Germany showed symptoms of aneating disorder in 17. The number of sufferers has tended to increase in recent years, partly attributed to the fact that young people develop unrealistic role models through social media.
