Laravel blade: if..else statement behaves unexpectedly

Question

Sorry, I couldn't find a better title for this question.

I want to show "follow" or "Edit Profile" link, depends on whether authenticated user is watching his own profile or other user's profile.

Here is my blade code:

@if(isLogedIn())
    @if($authedUser->id !== $profile->user()->find(1)->id)
        {{link_to_action('RelationshipsController@add', 'Follow', $profile->user()->find(1)->id, ['class' => 'button radius'])}}
    @else
        {{link_to_action('ProfilesController@edit', 'Edit Profile', $authedUser->id, ['class' => 'button radius'])}}
    @endif
@endif

Now, if I am watching other users' profiles everything is fine(if statement just works and I can see Follow link), However if I try to watch my own profile, laravel throws an exception : Trying to get property of non-object. The thing here is that $profile->user()->find(1)->id throws that exception, because when I hardcoded that to an integer everything worked properly.

Here is the line which causes the exception:

<?php if($authedUser->id !== $profile->user()->find(1)->id): ?>

PS1: The problem is not nested ifs.

PS2: In this situation my code never touch else part.

EDIT: Here is ProfileController@show :

public function show($userId)
{

    try{
        $profile = $this->profileRepo->byForeignKey('user_id',$userId)->firstOrFail();
    }catch(ModelNotFoundException $e){
       throw new ProfileNotFoundException('profile not found');
    }
    return View::make('profiles.show')->with('profile', $profile);
}

From comments: "because I need user's id. $profile->user() returns BelongsTo object so I used find(1) to get User object."

In this case you can use the dynamic property user instead of calling user().

@if($authedUser->id !== $profile->user->id)

Which is the same as

@if($authedUser->id !== $profile->user()->get()->id)

But you can't use find(1) here. It will try to search for an object with id = 1
