Do eating disorders affect you mentally?
Most eating disorders are mental to begin with. They rarely stem from just the simple desire to lose weight. If they have a negative influence in their life (media, 'friends', family, bullies, etc.) telling them they are fat then that is what causes the eating disorder. People who develop eating disorders are usually just trying to control their lives. Being able to control how much they do or do not eat is a way to maintain that illusion of control which (mostly, to them at least) makes up for lack of control in other areas of their lives. Many people who suffer from eating disorders never fully recover because they have been relying on this outlet for so long that they have never learned positive ways to deal with their problems. Eating disorders are a cycle and most people tend to fall right back into the order of things because it has become a habit.
