Presentation Title
Exploring Bulimia Nervosa and Diabulimia
Faculty Advisor Name
David Ford
Description
My project explores the psychological disorder of Bulimia Nervosa and its relatively new subcategory called "Diabullimia." Diabullimia is a subtype of Bulimia that affects people who have Type 1 Diabetes, where they misuse their insulin as a maladaptive attempt to control their weight. It looks at the history, symptoms, possible causes and risk-factors, treatment, and complexities of the disorder.
