Anorexia is a
serious medical problem, but it’s a medical problem with a psychological
overlie. People who have anorexia actually have a distorted body image. They
feel that there is something wrong with them. That they weigh too much. As a
result, they eat far less and can get into big trouble. Even when they are
losing weight, they continue to think they weigh too much, and that’s part of
the problem with anorexia. People who have anorexia nervosa have to have the
psychological issues dealt with as well as the weight issues.
