I personally think the other part of it is that it's an illness that is seemingly about food, which most people don't even think about. That makes the general population think that it's very simple. I often think that if people found out that I went to rehab for a drug addiction they would sympathize with me a lot more. However, because it's food they think, “Just eat,” or “Just stop eating,” or whatever your challenge is.
The other part of that, too, is that eating disorders are very rarely seen under the umbrella of mental illness. When we do all of these mental illness campaigns in terms of Let's Talk Day, or anything like that, eating disorders are very rarely profiled. I know that all mental illness needs to have more awareness, but that would be one place where I would like to see it shift as well.
