Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa and Binge-eating disorder (20)
Anorexia Nervosa, Bulimia Nervosa, and Binge-Eating Disorder are three distinct
eating disorders, each with unique diagnostic criteria and hallmark features as
outlined in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth
Edition (DSM-5). Here is a detailed comparison and differentiation of these
disorders:
### Anorexia Nervosa
#### Diagnostic Criteria:
1. **Restriction of Energy Intake**: Leading to significantly low body weight in
the context of age, sex, developmental trajectory, and physical health.
2. **Intense Fear of Gaining Weight**: Or persistent behavior that interferes with
weight gain, even though at a significantly low weight.
3. **Disturbance in Self-Perceived Weight or Shape**: Undue influence of body
weight or shape on self-evaluation, or lack of recognition of the seriousness of the
current low body weight.
#### Hallmark Features:
- **Severely Low Body Weight**: Often 15% or more below the expected weight.
- **Distorted Body Image**: Individuals often perceive themselves as overweight
even when underweight.
- **Amenorrhea**: Absence of menstruation in females.
- **Preoccupation with Food**: Includes obsessive thoughts about food, weight,
and dieting.
