Atypical Anorexia is when someone can have normal weight or be overweight and have anorexia nervosa - it’s not always about starving and making sure their body is as skinny as it can, it’s about thinking, counting calories - the struggle people with anorexia have. Let’s bring awareness that Anorexia Nervosa isn’t just about weight, it isn’t a psychical disorder it’s a mental disorder. It’s about thinking, not always about the state of ur body.
Person A : I have Anorexia Nervosa
Person B : No way, you have a normal BMI plus you look normal
Person A : I have Atypical Anorexia, but I could have normal Anorexia ITS NOT ABOUT MY BODY ITS ABOUT MY HEAD.
