Pearl St. Denver, CO 80210 520-440-0079 [email protected] www.carolynrossmd.com Objectives 1. Participants will be able to list two common characteristics between all eating disorder diagnoses 2. Participants will be able to name one medication studied in the treatment of eating disorders 3. Participants will be able to understand American Psychiatric Association recommendations for Anorexia or Bulimia 2 Eating Disorders 7 million females .5-3.7% of females have AN 1.1-4.2 % have BN 2-5% - B.E.D. 1 million males with AN 10-25% of those with AN will die as a direct result of the disease 19% of college-aged females are bulimic 35% of US population is obese Eating Disorders Have one of the highest mortality rates of all psychiatric diagnoses SMR = 11.6 for anorexia; 1.3 for bulimia SMR for suicide in anorexia = 56.9 Severity of alcohol use was associated with increased risk for mortality Hospitalization for an affective disorder was protective from mortality Keel PK, et al. Arch of Gen Psych. 2/2003;60(2) DSM-IV Criteria for Anorexia Nervosa Refusal to maintain body weight at or above a minimally normal weight for age and height (e.g. weight reduction less than 85% of expected or failure to gain weight during growth to less than 85% of expected) Unrealistic fear of gaining weight or becoming fat Unrealistic appraisal of body weight or shape or denial of seriousness of current low body weight. In postmenarcheal females, amenorrhea (i.e. absence of at least 3 consecutive menstrual cycles.) May be binge-purge type of restricting type DSM-IV Criteria for Bulimia Nervosa Note: may be purging type (selfinduced vomiting or using laxatives) or nonpurging type (exercise or fasting) Inappropriate behavior to compensate for overeating (e.g. self-induced vomiting, laxatives, diuretics, fasting Eating and compensation at least twice a week for 3 months Self-evaluation is unduly influenced by body shape and weight Recurrent episodes of binge eating Eating, in a discrete period of time (e.g. up to two hours) an amount of food that is definitely larger than most people would eat during a similar period of time and under similar circumstances. A sense of lack of control during the episode DSM-IV Criteria for B.E.D. or C.E. Recurrent episodes of binge eating. An episode is characterized by: n Eating a larger amount of food than normal during a short period of time (within any two hour period) n Lack of control over eating during the binge episode (i.e. the feeling that one cannot stop eating). 1. Binge eating episodes are associated with three or more of the following:. 1. Eating until feeling uncomfortably full Eating large amounts of food when not physically hungry 2. Eating much more rapidly than normal 3. Eating alone because you are embarrassed by how much you're eating 4. Feeling disgusted, depressed, or guilty after overeating 5. Marked distress regarding binge eating is present 2. Binge eating occurs, on average, at least 2 days a week for six months 3. The binge eating is not associated with the regular use of inappropriate compensatory behavior (i.e. purging, excessive exercise, etc.) and does not occur exclusively during the course of bulimia nervosa or anorexia nervosa Definitions of Eating Disorders Weight preoccupation and excessive selfevaluation of weight and shape 50-64% of anorexics develop bulimic behaviors / bulimics often begin to restrict Common Co-Morbidities Major Depressive Disorder Lifetime risk in Anorexics = 80% Anxiety Disorders, ADHD, OCD, Panic OCD prevalence= 30% in patients with eating disorders Personality Disorders - 21-97% Cluster B most common with bulimia (dramatic/erratic) Cluster C most common with anorexia (avoidant/anxious) Social Phobias Substance Use Disorders Prevalence in anorexia = 12-18% Prevalence in bulimia = 30-70% PTSD Integrative Approach to ED 1st SUPERFICIAL LEVEL OF BEHAVIORS: Eating Disorders, Substance Use, Depression, Anxiety, Sexual Compulsivity, others 2nd EMOTIONAL SOUP: Shame, Fear, Anger, Joy, Guilt – Emotions in control of the person. Emotions are the fuel for behaviors. 3rd SENSATE LEVEL: The body sensations associated with emotions 4th CORE BELIEFS: Beliefs formed in the midst of intense emotion, often forgotten but unconsciously these beliefs continue to shape and drive behaviors 5th Deeper Urges of the Soul: The authentic or true self which caismouflaged by all of the above, Passion or Bliss. Your soul’s desires Screening for Eating Disorders SCOFF Questions* Do you make yourself Sick (induce vomiting) because you feel uncomfortably full? Do you worry that you have lost Control over how much you eat? Have Do you recently lost more than One stone (14 lb [6.4 kg]) in a three-month period? you think you are too Fat, even though others say you are too thin? Would you say that Food dominates your life? One point for every yes answer; a score >= 2 indicates a likely case of anorexia nervosa or bulimia nervosa (sensitivity: 100 percent; specificity: 87.5 percent). Morgan JF, Reid F, Lacey JH.

Do you think you should be dieting? Are you dissatisfied with your body size? Does your weight affect the way you think about yourself? A positive response to any of these questions warrants further evaluation. Information from Anstine D, Grinenko D.

I am ill because of wounds to the soul, to the deep emotional self and wounds to the soul take a long, long time, only time can help and patience, and a certain difficult repentance, long, difficult repentance, realization of life’s mistake, and the freeing oneself From the endless repetition of the mistake which mankind at large has chosen to sanctify.
