Orthorexia: The Other Eating Disorder
Maybe you gave up sugar. Then you stopped eating anything that contained ingredients you couldn't pronounce. Now you never eat anything that comes in a package, and you don't think you can attend a friend's upcoming birthday dinner because you won't be able to eat any of the food being served.
If this sounds familiar, you may be dealing with orthorexia.
