‘Behaviour issues for bulimia’ Meet the Best Psychiatrists - Dr. Anuja Kelkar (MBBS, MD)

 

Behavioral issues associated with bulimia nervosa primarily revolve around patterns of binge eating and purging, along with related behaviors aimed at controlling weight and food intake. Binge eating episodes involve consuming large amounts of food in a short period, often accompanied by feelings of loss of control. Purging behaviors, such as self-induced vomiting, misuse of laxatives or diuretics, fasting, or excessive exercise, are used to compensate for the perceived overeating and prevent weight gain. These behaviors can become habitual and escalate over time, contributing to a cycle of disordered eating that can be difficult to break without intervention. Individuals with bulimia may also engage in secretive behaviors to hide their symptoms, such as hoarding food or making frequent trips to the bathroom after meals. Addressing these behavioral issues through therapy, counseling, and support is crucial for recovery from bulimia.
