Abstract

Patients with an eating disorder have difficulties perceiving emotions. They have skills deficits in the acceptance, modification and opposite action to emotion driven behavior. They use disturbed eating behavior (restrained eating, binge eating and purging), but also situational avoidance, dissociation and substance use as an instrument for emotional avoidance. This constitutes an innovative starting point for therapy.

Patientinnen mit Essstörung haben Schwierigkeiten in der Wahrnehmung von Emotionen. Sie haben Fertigkeitendefizite in der Akzeptanz, Modifikation und beim Handeln entgegengesetzt zu emotionsgetriebenem Verhalten. Sie nutzen gestörtes Essverhalten (Nahrungsrestriktion, Essanfälle und Erbrechen), aber auch Situationsvermeidung, Dissoziation und Substanzen als Instrumente der Emotionsvermeidung. Hieraus ergibt sich ein innovativer Ansatzpunkt der Behandlung.
