The trouble is who do you ask? Because naturally people with eating disorders won't think, or say, they have an ED. They'll say they're living a healthier lifestyle and they're getting all the food they need.

I see this all the time with body builders. They're convinced they're healthy, but in reality, they absolutely despise food. It's a chore to them. And to top it off they have extreme body dysmorphia, often pushing them to drug use that kills them.
