A member asked:
Will someone be anorexic but not think they're fat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
I haven't yet worked: With an actively anorexic patient who was satisfied with her/his body. I have worked with individuals who have come to love and accept their bodies after a lot of hard of emotional work.
