There is no exact one cause of anorexia. Some causes are... * Dieting gone too far or out of control * Depression, BDD (Body Dismorphic Disorder), distorted body image, OCD or "perfectionist" problems * Media portrayal of "thin is good", peer pressure (some dispute these, though) * Genetics / Biological (if your parent was anorexic, there is a higher chance you might become anorexic, too) * Insecurities about one's body * Stressful lives, people thinking that food is the only thing they can "control"
It is very difficult to isolate the cause of anorexia, as there are many factors that can influence it. Some common ones are depression, teasing, low self-esteem / low body image, and BDD (Body Dismorphic Disorder). In some cases, a primary or likely cause can be determined or theorized, especially if the anorexic pateint displays clear sign of another problem, like BDD or depression.
