@baragouinify Psychological disorder. You don't come down with anorexia.
-
@TekkenAirJuggle This is an illness. One of the mind, but still an illness.

??How do freckles accentuate her eyes? I think the freckles make her look like a spotted animal.

Bad childhoods do not cause anorexia, or else anyone with a bad childhood would be anorexic which is not the case. Someone chooses to respond, albeit subconsciously, to reject foods as a way of gaining any measure of control in their lives. Anorexia is an unhealthy response to their own despair. It's a mental and behavioral disorder. Not an illness, not a disease. Blaming it on your childhood does nothing to change it. Viewing it as a disease does nothing either.

It's a mental disorder...with physical effects. It is not a physical disease.

ed to sing, hi-achiever,perfectionist,ange lic/always wants to plz, to b HER BEST. Suppose this CHILD hears/overhears simple words from an authority she trusts: "GREAT STAR-'cause so SMALL, LITTLE, w/AMAZING voice,like no other! BUT there's a POSSIBILITY the draw won't last as she grows BIGGER, mayNOT stay aGREAT star". Mostly she is ordered/controlled by others BUT the CRITICAL thing (to stay SMALL) was her "disordered belief/fear" in her child'sMIND&in herCONTROL. -
'Disordered thinking' leads to disordered responses(emits/emots)emotiona
l acts reflected in poor emotional development,emotional immaturity(&MORE disordered thinking&responses). In anorexic cases, disordered belief(s) lead to acts of bad eating/no eating/no desire. If disordered beliefs aren't STRAIGHTened (layer by layer), actual PHYSICAL DISEASE results as the body itself becomes "conditioned" to ACT THE PART,throw-up/reject food/fail (Homosex reject OppositeSex as desirable mates;NO turn-on).

@alllisonnx0 By definition it's an eating disorder. Calling it an illness but not a disease makes no sense as they're the same thing.

I find it sad that she calls it an "illness". Disorders are not diseases.
