Societal Pressures
Societal pressures are expectations that affect the entire community, or specific parts of it, like the pressure to get married and have children.
Pressures from family members to remain thin and lose weight can lead to an increased risk of developing an eating disorder. Nearly 40% of people with an eating disorder report feeling pressure to lose weight by their own family members.
societal pressures are seen more often because of the media and society creating a false idealistic person that everyone believes they need to be. Reality shows, movies and social media show the "best of the best" but these people are unrealistic representations of individuals
these societal pressures change with age as well. as a young child around kindergarten and entry school age, you are apart from your parents in an unfamiliar environment and begin to fight for the attention of other children. As you get older and hit middle and high school age there are hundreds of social pressures that begin to show. teenagers begin to believe they are expected to: to wear lots of makeup to look good, have lots of friends to be happy, have lots of money to be worth anything in life, need to be fit and must be in a relationship. As you leave school the pressures change again but are still very similar, one is to marry and have children before your 30's and in some cultures drinking and substance abuse are pressures of society
