My mate's suffering... and I get spelling corrections... which are justified, I suppose, the knowledge is even more appreciated.

Yo, Kavekarst... I went off YA because some served me with a violation notice for something innocuous, it sort of spoils the fun of it... you in-put is always appreciated though... I keep thinking about the response you gave to my question about Blair... :)


Answers:

Proper name fro the disorder is BULIMIA (eating like a Bull)...regurgitating and eating again..
Tha newest approach are made in three separate manners:

1.- Cognitive psychotherapy, which is directed towards pointing the wrong mechanisms of thought and "acting out" of people prone, or suffering from, bulmia.

2,.- Pharmacological support (depending on the compliance of the patient, somtimes very hard to assess), by means of fluoxetine derivatives and other antodepressants (venlaflaxine, Bupropion) or a proper combination of those,,,)

3.- The third is used when everything else fails, and is hospitalization, with strict control of what the patient eats, drinks etc, with careful monitoring of the patients weight......
