show me the test for "chemical imbalance" It's BS. Stop believing crap. Stop telling people false answers.

@@yourrnamee1280 This is basic knowledge. The chemistry of the Brain and body. Hormones and the Glands. As we know of Vitamins. You are basically being like Freddy Courger, ( the Horror Movie) to the person that says I can not sleep. You would say just don't believe you can not go to sleep and you will, as if it were that simply. When instead suggesting a calming tea or sleeping meds or pills would be the right or better thing to suggest. You are being rude mean and indifferent to a person's suffering.

The person's weight is just a symptom, not the issue. Many ppl with anorexia nervosa know a lot about nutrition due to having an obsession with food & anything food related, but they don't feel able to actually put it into practice for themselves. In terms of a chemical balance, that too is just the physical sign in the brain that something is wrong, it is not the cause.

@@lifesong8484 The or a person must abide by an ideal weight, (Ideal fatness) and abide by a proper diet. Proper nutrition, and 'not' abide of what their schizo effect tells them. A person with Schizo effects must be treated with education and Medication. A chemical imbalance is indeed the cause, you need to stop with the word 'Just' And again you are being like Freddy Krueger unto the suffering person.

thanks

Thanks for your comments. Keep the discussion going.

It’s different for everyone. For me it was about control..

But it is for a lot of people, and most people I know with an ED it has been triggered or caused by loss of control. So don’t invalidate other peoples experience x

I have also been turned off by the world “control” because it felt so judgmental. For me it was about predictability. A way to make things make sense. It was a way to manage expectations. If I eat this or do this much exercise I can predict how I’m going to feel afterwards. So it didn’t feel like “I want to be in control” because those that have control have the power, but it was a way to make the world feel manageable. Predictable. Something that could be anticipated. It gave order to things. I knew what was “right” and what was “wrong” and therefore what to do.

I wpuld say in some cases like my its compensation for example of my depression and insecurity

You have eating disorder yes you are eating disordered
