Anorexia criteria
What causes an eating disorder? I am a little confused about what causes an eating disorder. Is an eating disorder caused by trying to be skinny and then having that get out of control and causing changes and malfunctions in the brain? Or is an eating disorder caused by trying to control your emotions and control the world by controlling what you eat? I am trying to understand a family members anorexia and I find that it is hard to get a clear answer what it’s really caused by. Can you help to shed some light on this for me?
