Summary/Abstract: The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) describes bulimia with the following symptoms: recurrent binge eating, feeling of loss of control, compensatory behaviors, inordinate concern about body shape and weight. This description clearly expresses a feeling of emotional disorder and painful conflict, and in fact, a strong difficulty of emotional regulation, self-regulation of affect, feelings of emptiness, and the experience of extreme loneliness.
