Document Summary
Also know that sociocultural factors are huge in eating disorders, but less so in other mental illness. Know that obesity is not a clinical disorder or mental illness, but can respond well to some of the same treatments that are used for eating disorders, or depression, or substance use (cbt, motivational interviewing). We did not talk much about obesity outside of bed, but note that those are associated. Know the diagnostic crossover statistics especially, bed does not typically cross over into _____. People with eating disorders often later develop other eating disorders; however, this cross over is uncommon between binge-eating disorder and anorexia. An-bp to bn is common, but not vice versa. Bed to bn is kind of common; more common than bn to bed. Overall, also know that eating disorders, in particular anorexia, are closely linked to personality (i. e. , traits such as perfectionism or impulsivity), and difficult to treat due to low insight, high risk of relapse.
