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.
