Abstract

Eating Disorder and Personality Disorder

Eating disorders notably Anorexia Nervosa and Bulimia Nervosa are complex phenomena. The patient with eating disorder maintains a distorted view of her body as too fat or as somehow defective (she may have a body dysmorphic disorder). Many patients with eating disorders are found in professions where body form and image are emphasized (e.g., ballet students, fashion models, actors).
