Are eating disorders a lifestyle choice?

While the initial behaviors defining eating disorders such as starving oneself, excess food consumption, and purging are voluntary behaviors, it only becomes an eating disorder when the person has little control over these actions and develops anxieties about their bodies, their weight, and food. However, after developing an eating disorder and recognizing it, if the person does not seek help or try to end the behavior when resources are available they are choosing to live with or fully embracing their eating disorder. At that point they have chosen their eating disorder as their lifestyle.
