A member asked:
Is it possible that a diagnosis of anorexia could be wrong and just severe depression and anxiety is the underlying cause what determines anorexia ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Could be both: anorexia is a diagnosis that caused by some other underlying diseases. while treating anorexia, you need to treat the main cause, like depression and anxiety. so the diagnosis is not wrong. ignoring and not treating the main cause is wrong.
