Obesity: Obesity is one of the most common health problems all across the world. Although it does not always end with death, it can cause a lot of social, psychological and health problems. Obesity seriously interferes with someone`s life in many ways, for example an obese person cannot simply go outside just because he or she thinks that he is ugly and people look at him and pity him. Although it is generally caused by overeating or compulsive eating, some times it may be caused by psychological breakdown after the loss of a spouse or the death of a parent.
