Abstract
ABSTRACT Anorexia is an eating disorder characterized by a morbid fear of gaining weight, excessive restriction of food and intense and exaggerated practice of physical exercise. There are two subtypes of anorexia: restrictive and purgative. Its prevalence is mainly in female adolescents aged 15 to 19 and entails multiple harmful physical, psychological, social, and emotional consequences. Anorexia is portrayed as a multifactorial disorder, requiring a biopsychosocial perspective and a multidisciplinary intervention to address all the affected areas of the individual. In this article, we approach the appliance of Narrative Therapy by White and Epston ((1989). Literate Means to Therapeutic Ends. Dulwich Centre Publications), which advocates that the psychotherapeutic treatment can be carried out together – psychologist, client and family – with the literature supporting it. Anorexia is an egosyntonic disorder associated with a high mortality rate. It should be noted that the cure for anorexia is not granted since there is an increased number of relapses and treatment dropouts. For this reason, an innovative approach like narrative therapy can be approached with promising results.
厌食症是一种饮食失调,其特征是对体重增加的病态恐惧,过度限制食物和强烈和夸张的体育锻炼。厌食症有两种亚型:限制性厌食症和泻性厌食症。它主要在15至19岁的女性青少年中流行,并导致多种有害的身体、心理、社会和情感后果。厌食症被描述为一种多因素的疾病,需要从生物心理社会的角度和多学科的干预来解决个体所有受影响的领域。在本文中,我们探讨了White和Epston(1989)的叙事疗法的应用。达到治疗目的的文学手段。Dulwich Centre Publications),倡导心理治疗治疗可以一起进行——心理学家、来访者和家庭——并有文献支持。厌食症是一种与高死亡率相关的自我神经性疾病。应该指出的是,厌食症的治愈是不被批准的,因为有越来越多的复发和治疗退出。出于这个原因,像叙事疗法这样的创新方法可以取得很好的效果。
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
