Changes in eating habits are sometimes a way teens cope with stress, control, or emotional overwhelm. Guardians may want to watch for:
✅ Skipping meals or eating very little
✅ Obsessive focus on weight, food, or body image
✅ Sudden changes in mood, energy, or routines
✅ Eating in secret or avoiding meals with others
Early awareness, open conversations, and supportive guidance can make a meaningful difference by helping teens feel safe asking for help! 💚
