Abstract:
In this article, I argue that eating disorders constitute a form of social suffering, in which sufferers embody liminality as a response to, and a reflection of, oppressive sociality, structural violence, and institutional constraints. Based on the illness narratives of people with anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, and their subclinical variants in Israel, the analysis draws the experiential, the social, and the structural into critical focus. These narratives, which delineate lived experiences of self-starving, bingeing, and purging, and the attendant viscerality of hunger, fullness, and emptiness, reveal how participants developed an embodied drawing inward and away, being at once within and without society for extended periods of time, through eating disordered practices. This liminal positioning, I argue, was a mode through which participants cultivated alternative (if temporary) personal spaces, negotiated identities, and anesthetized pain: processes many deemed essential to survival. Embedding the participants’ narratives of eating disordered experiences within familial, societal, and political-economic forces that shaped their individual lives, I examine the participants’ striving for liminality as at once intimately embodied and structurally mapped. The analysis suggests that policy initiatives for eating disorder prevention must address the social suffering that eating disorders manifest: suffering caused by structures and institutions that reinforce social inequality, violence, and injustice.

Abstract:
Couples therapy is often overlooked in the treatment of eating disorders yet provides a vital role in healing and recovery. In this article we propose a four-step-task model for couples therapy when the female partner has an eating disorder. This psychodynamic model includes narrative techniques to convey pertinent personal history, attachment work, parts work, and shared communication of emotion. The article describes the composite model and details the four steps.

Abstract:
Websites advocating the benefits of eating disorders (“Pro-Ana”) tend to reinforce and maintain restrictive eating and purging behaviors. Yet remarkably, no study has explored individual accounts of disengagement from these sites and the associated meanings. Using narrative inquiry, this study sought to address this gap. From the interviews of six women, two overarching storylines emerged. The first closely tied disengagement to recovery with varying positions of personal agency claimed: this ranged from enforced and unwelcomed breaks that ignited change, to a personal choice that became viable through the development of alternative social and personal identities. A strong counternarrative to “disengagement as recovery” also emerged. Here, disengagement from Pro-Ana was storied alongside a need to retain an ED lifestyle. With “recovery” being just one reason for withdrawal from Pro-Ana sites, clinicians must remain curious about the meanings individuals ascribe to this act, without assuming it represents a step toward recovery.

Abstract:
Positive effects from sports are achieved primarily through physical activity, but secondary effects bring health benefits such as psychosocial and personal development and less alcohol consumption. Negative effects, such as the risk of failure, injuries, eating disorders, and burnout, are also apparent. Because physical activity is increasingly conducted in an organized manner, sport’s role in society has become increasingly important over the years, not only for the individual but also for public health. In this paper, we intend to describe sport’s physiological and psychosocial health benefits, stemming both from physical activity and from sport participation per se. This narrative review summarizes research and presents health-related data from Swedish authorities. It is discussed that our daily lives are becoming less physically active, while organized exercise and training increases. Average energy intake is increasing, creating an energy surplus, and thus, we are seeing an increasing number of people who are overweight, which is a strong contributor to health problems. Physical activity and exercise have significant positive effects in preventing or alleviating mental illness, including depressive symptoms and anxiety- or stress-related disease. In conclusion, sports can be evolving, if personal capacities, social situation, and biological and psychological maturation are taken into account. Evidence suggests a dose–response relationship such that being active, even to a modest level, is superior to being inactive or sedentary. Recommendations for healthy sports are summarized.

Full text
Abstract:
Abstract Scholars have traditionally interpreted Hipponax fragment 128 (West) as an epic parody designed to belittle the grand pretensions and gluttonous habits of his enemy. I suggest, however, that this traditional reading ultimately falls short because of two unexamined assumptions: (1) that the meter and diction of the fragment are exclusively meant to recall epic narrative and not any other early hexametrical genre, and (2) that the descriptive epithets in lines 2 and 3 are the ad hoc comic creations of the poet and simply refer to the table manners of a glutton or a parasite. I argue instead that this fragment in several ways reflects the language, the meter and the performative goal of hexametrical chants or incantations designed to expel harmful famine demons or to escort human scapegoats from the city. I also suggest that the vivid and somewhat comic descriptions of the enemy in fragment 128 probably do not aim at his personal eating disorders, but rather they are drawn from two interrelated and generic features of archaic Greek thought: a tradition of describing famine-demons as insatiable eaters, and a popular theme in Greek invective which demonizes political enemies as rapacious pests who threaten to gobble up the commonwealth of the city and who therefore must be expelled from the community, precisely like a famine-demon.

Abstract:
We inquired into the ways in which seven female participants experienced body dissatisfaction and spirituality—both as separate and as connected issues in their lives. Following a narrative analysis, we identified three main themes. The first theme involved participants' open, accepting spiritual beliefs. The second theme involved participants' struggle with body dissatisfaction, which for many was a persistent difficulty. Within this theme of body dissatisfaction, participants discussed ways this dissatisfaction was maintained and ways they were protected from engaging in eating disorder symptoms. Participants identified ways body dissatisfaction persisted, including tendencies to compare their bodies to others' bodies and assume a sense of personal responsibility for their bodies. Participants discussed beliefs in health and spiritual aspects of protection as ways they were safeguarded from eating disorder symptoms. The third theme involved participants' interpretation of a researcher inquiry about spiritual assistance with body dissatisfaction. Based on these findings, we present research and counseling implications.

Abstract:
Maternal nutrition is very important for the wellbeing of pregnant women, childbirth, and lactating women, which are crucial and meant for the wellbeing of a mother and newborn baby. This narrative review discusses nutritional malpractices, motivational drivers, and their consequences typically from Ethiopian pregnant women’s context. Different studies (regarding less of study design and type) done among pregnant women (aged 15–49 years) by considering pregnancy-related outcomes and timing of nutritional malpractices were included mostly. Accordingly, taboos of healthy diets, craving for unhealthy foods (sweet, fat, raw, and salty/spicy foods), and nonfood items (soil, coffee residue, stone, and ash) were practiced majorly by the women. The birth difficulty, fetal head plastering, fetus discoloration, fetus burns, abortion, and abdominal cramp are the primary drivers of taboos of healthy diets. Hormonal change and social and nutrient-seeking behavior are the most prevalent drivers to the consumption of unhealthy foods. Additionally, personal interest, flavor, and color of items are important motivators to practice pica. Such pica practice hurts nutrient intake, absorption of iron/zinc, abdominal health, and diarrhea occurrence. Food taboos are high predictors of health disorders, such as intrauterine growth restriction, infection, bleeding, preeclampsia, stillbirth, early birth, low birth weight, retarded development of cognitive, and anemia. Craving and eating unhealthy foods were interconnected with chronic disease development (hypertension, diabetes, heart disease, and cancer), discomforts, preterm labor, preeclampsia, and intrauterine growth restriction in women. Additionally, it is also associated with stillbirth, low birth weight, obesity, birth defect/deficit, hypertension, cancer, diabetes, metabolic syndrome, renal disease, decreased fetal growth, behavioral change, heart failure, and poor cognitive development in the infant. Overall, these nutritional malpractices are significantly associated with many argumentative pregnancies as well as developmental consequences leading to the direction of infant and maternal mortality and morbidity. Therefore, urgent implementation of health and nutrition education programs considering food misconceptions and beliefs regarding pregnancy and use of ground-breaking ways to play down the negative and maximize potential positive dietary effects designed by the government of Ethiopia could also serve as a long-term solution to the problem.

Resumo: Esta tese surgiu do interesse em pesquisar em maior profundidade alguns aspectos da intrincada relação entre corporificação, gênero e assujeitamento, através da análise do conjunto de perturbações denominadas "transtornos alimentares". No contexto contemporâneo em que o corpo torna-se alvo privilegiado de investimento e intervenção, assumindo centralidade nos processos de construção identitária, uma investigação antropológica destas perturbações permite pensar como a constituição de sujeitos corporificados é perpassada por múltiplas normatividades de gênero, classe, regionalidade, raça e etnicidade, presentes na socialidade cotidiana e nas práticas e discursos biomédicos. Tomando como eixo central a composição de três histórias de vida, em colaboração com mulheres que tiveram experiências pessoais com transtornos alimentares, é possível ter acesso ao processo através do qual pessoas vivenciam formas particulares de assujeitamento, compostas por distintas articulações entre múltiplas dimensões de poder, deforma inseparável, constituindo-se, assim, como sujeitos de ação em meio a conformações e resistências. Ainda que o fio condutor da tese encontre-se nas histórias de vida, escritas ao longo de quatro anos em colaboração com três interlocutoras voluntárias, sua trama é composta pelos diversos percursos teóricos e empíricos de uma etnografia multi-situada (HANNERZ, 2003), que transitou pelo universo de comunidades virtuais brasileiras sobre transtornos alimentares, um serviço ambulatorial de um hospital universitário, congressos de psiquiatria, uma vasta bibliografia e uma agência feminista de base comunitária para tratamento, educação e prevenção de transtornos alimentares na Nova Zelândia.
Abstract The aim of this thesis is to investigate in greater depth some aspects of the intricate relation between embodiment, gender and subjectification, through the analysis of the group of perturbations named "eating disorders". In the contemporary context, in which the body becomes the privileged target of investment and intervention, assuming a central role in the processes of identity construction, an anthropological investigation of these perturbations allows us to evaluate how the constitution of embodied subjects is fraught with multiple normativities of gender, class, regionality, race and ethnicity, present in daily sociality and in biomedical practices and discourses. Taking as a central axis the composition of three life-histories, in collaboration with women who had personal experiences with eating disorders, it is possible to gain access to the process by means which persons live particular forms of subjectification, composed by distinct inseparable articulations of multiple dimensions of power, becoming, thus, subjects of agency amidst conformation and resistance. If the connecting thread of the thesis is found in the life histories, written with the voluntary research collaborators along four years, its warp is the woven out of the different theoretical and empirical paths of a multi-sited ethnography (HANNERZ, 2003), along the universe of Brazilian virtual communities about eating disorders, an outpatient treatment unit at an University hospital, Psychiatry congresses, a wide bibliography and a feminist community based service for the education, prevention and counseling for eating difficulties in New Zealand.

Abstract:
This research, based on a random sample of undergraduates at the University of Arizona, is an exploration of the relationships between normative conformity, self-perception, and eating behavior. The goal of this study was to examine how norms governing appearance and sex roles contribute to a view of self that may result in serious eating problems. Three dimensions of self were included in the study: body image, control, and orientation to others. Specifically, it was hypothesized that overconformity would contribute to a self-concept defined in terms of negative body image, including a high degree of weight consciousness, strong need to exercise self-constraint, and high degree of orientation to others. In turn, this negative self image is likely to be associated with eating behavior which may be described as "weight obsessed," although not necessarily meeting clinical criteria for eating disorders. One of the major purposes of this research was to examine gender differences in the processes contributing to disturbances in eating behavior. It was hypothesized that definitions of the female and male self would have different outcomes in terms of eating behavior. It was also hypothesized that conformity to norms would be a more salient issue for females than for males. Findings of this research indicate that females experience more disturbed eating than males; that societal standards of appearance do affect eating behavior of both females and males, although this effect is greater for females; and that a self-concept defined in terms of negative body image, high weight consciousness, need for constraint, and feelings of failure/inadequacy contribute to problematic eating among females. These results imply that solutions to the problem of disordered eating must be examined in terms of social causes: specifically, current definitions of femininity, attractiveness, and self-concept.

Abstract:
This research focuses on pushing forward the understanding of mental disorders portrayals in games, more specifically social anxiety, which still lies as a marginalized topic in this medium. In order to understand honest manifestations of social anxiety in games, the first step is to conduct a close reading of games made by people who suffer from this mental disorder. A collection of five indie games, all of autobiographical nature and featuring social anxiety as an important part of their text, was put together for this analysis. This was done embracing the need to address the representational complexity, in order to tap into such a nuanced and elusive topic as social anxiety, not to identify rights or wrongs, but to engage in a discussion of how experiences are represented in games by people directly affected by this mental disorder. Individual experiences also contribute to expand interpretations and to identify additional keys of social anxiety representation. This is done by reaching informants, people living with a comorbid mental illnesses or disorders, that face or had faced social anxiety, and assess their perspectives through an experiential workshop. This work intends to further explore the practice of game design as mediator of experiences, contributing to both deepen the knowledge of game design and explore nuances of individual experiences present in autobiographical games and how this relates to perspectives of other people living with social anxiety. By combining the games and informants perspectives it is possible to structure a debate about game design patterns based on the findings of the game analysis and further elaborated with the nuanced perceptions gathered from informants. The knowledge acquired through this work is a step towards understanding of how games can represent, in an honest and non-stereotypical way, mental disorders, starting with social anxiety and, hopefully, contribute to spark other studies to broaden the spectrum of how the complexity of adverse mental conditions can be more respectfully addressed in games.

Abstract:
Numerous studies have reported psychological benefits associated with the practice of values-based self-affirmation. However, there is little evidence regarding their clinical applicability. Many of the purported benefits of values-based self-affirmation are highly relevant to people with bulimia nervosa (BN). This study used a multiple case study design in order to investigate the effectiveness, underlying mechanisms and acceptability of a brief (three week) intervention focussing on the development and practice of values-based self-affirmations with people who have BN. Two participants were recruited from an Eating Disorders (ED) Service waiting list. They completed questionnaires measuring cognitions associated with ED, attitude towards change, self-esteem, self-compassion, body image acceptance, psychological flexibility, cognitive defusion, and SELF repertory grids over four time points. Following appointments qualitative data was collected, and on completion of the intervention participants were interviewed, regarding their experiences. Pre and post intervention behavioural measures of BN were also collected. The use of a personal values-based self-affirmation intervention was associated with reductions in behaviours associated with BN, enhanced attitude towards change and reduced discrepancy between self and ideal self. There was little convincing evidence that the intervention was associated with a reduction in cognitions associated with ED. A very small degree of change in a positive direction was observed in relation to self-esteem, self-compassion, body image acceptance, psychological flexibility and cognitive fusion. However, scores did not reflect Reliable Change in these processes. Overall, results appeared to be slightly better explained by theory underpinning Personal Construct Psychotherapy rather than Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. However, neither theoretical explanation fully accounted for the data. Participants generally found the intervention to be acceptable. The results add novel findings to the literature regarding the use of values-based self-affirmation within the treatment of BN. They suggest that a brief values-based self-affirmation intervention might be a useful adjunct to evidence based treatment of BN. However, the case study design that is utilised in this study limits the degree to which these results may be generalised and future research should explore this further.

Full text
Abstract:
Dominant narratives about psychosis portray individuals as lonely, dangerous and unable to contribute to society. Such views may be incorporated into an individual’s personal story and are associated with negative outcomes for personal and clinical recovery. Art-making is associated with personal meaning-making and alternative forms of expression. It is therefore considered potentially relevant to narrative modification. Adult service-users with psychosis participated in a gallery-based art-making intervention. At interview, participants used their self-created images to help tell their story. Literary, experience-centred and culturally-oriented lenses were used to analyse narratives. Turning-points as modifiers of stigmatised dominant narratives were explored, as was how the intervention supported recovery. Art-making was associated with achievement, challenge and satisfaction. Story-telling using visual and verbal means opened up stories and alternative perspectives for participants. Recovery-principles including hope and aspiration were supported, identified through goals and recognition of achievement. Sharing experiences with others with similar experiences was viewed as impacting positively on mental-health. The intervention represented effective partnership working between NHS services and a gallery in overcoming barriers to accessing the arts, for people with psychosis. Achievements in art-making and narrating experience using visual and verbal means offered alternatives to personally limiting and illness-dominated narratives.

AbstractIn response to the view that suggests eating disorders are a form of individual psychopathology, this chapter is written to suggest that individuals with eating disorders exist within a social context with values about appearance ideals, the construction of gender, and the threat of sexualized violence. This chapter uses the story of a woman named Annie with an Anorexia Nervosa diagnosis, and her experiences with clinical treatment which in some cases contributed to her sense of psychopathology, and in other cases help with both a decrease in her symptoms and her sense of discovery of herself as a person. Values implicit in the narrative, and implications for psychotherapy are also discussed.

Abstract:
During the famine that befell China following the disaster of the Great Leap Forward, hunger was a major affliction for the individuals undergoing reform in the labor camps. Food – in terms of procurement, consumption, or just discursive recollection – was a central issue in the prisoners’ lives and, as a consequence, descriptions of meals and eating practices are a recurring presence in modern Chinese literary texts that revolve around carceral experiences. This contribution investigates three literary works that reconstruct personal experiences of imprisonment by way of eating: Wang Ruowang’s Hunger Trilogy (1980), Zhang Xianliang’s Mimosa (1984), and Yang Xianhui’s Chronicles of Jiabiangou (2003). In these texts, food becomes a privileged perspective through which look at how personal and collective memories are re-appropriated and re-elaborated, as well as to analyze how narratives of the past are consumed and produced.

Abstract:
AbstractBuilding on a view of Feeding and Eating Disorders (FEDs) as passions, this chapter illustrates through personal testimony and materials from publicly accessible (Pro-Ana) websites the nature of anorexia as a kind of religion. The explicit values of this ‘religion’ are shown to have their origins in a cultural value we call ‘ocularcentrism’. Some of the limitations and further developments of this model are indicated. The model though we conclude may be helpful in developing more effective approaches to therapy.

Abstract:
An overall increased prevalence of eating disorders psychopathology has been reported among the LGBTQ population, particularly among gay men. For some transgender people transitioning post puberty, pressure to conform to a social gender role with the body of their assigned gender may precipitate body dissatisfaction and eating disorders as a consequence. For gay men in particular, trying to conform to specific roles, and the effect of the media, may also affect body dissatisfaction. In addition, concurrent mental health problems such as anxiety and depression may make the LGBTQ population more vulnerable to developing eating disorders. Helpful interventions for eating disorders in the LGBTQ population include addressing the maintaining factors of the eating disorder through therapy; improving interpersonal skills; and considering specific themes for this population, such as coming out, fears of rejection, and personal/societal acceptance.

Abstract:
"Various psychological reactions, found to traumatic distress, are widely known in psychological literature. Based on 30-years theoretical and empirical studies of extreme human experience, we suggested unconventional approach to differentiation of psychological reactions and human behavior in various extreme events into three groups:1) distress, disorganization, disorders, traumatization; 2) adaptation, hardiness, resilience; 3) personal growth, transgression (Magomed-Eminov M., 1998, 2007). The proposed research is devoted to the positive psychological consequences of COVID-19 disease. Our aim was to study the positive psychological influence of COVID-19 disease for lifestyle, behavior, communication, life relationships, and well-being of people, who were ill. We suggested and checked the hypothesis, that objectively serious COVID-19 disease, carrying uncertainty, confusion, horror, for many people discover also a heroism, pride, the experience of success because of coping with disease. We collected the narratives of people, who got COVID-19, and conducted content analysis. Our study showed that after being ill COVID-19 interviewed people discovered new meanings of existence, despite the loss of loved ones, socio-economic difficulties and other hardships of COVID- 19 pandemics. We conclude that COVID-19 disease as extreme situation not only becomes a test, but can also open up new perspectives, value of other people and of life in general."

Abstract:
The present study was a two-part investigation into the concept of, risk markers for, and original measure of Cannabis-Dependent Appetite (CDA). Cannabis-Dependent Appetite is a condition in which some prolonged heavy cannabis users develop disordered eating habits, marked by the increasing need for cannabis ingestion to stimulate appetite. Current literature is mainly focused on changes in appetite post-ingestion. However, it is imperative to differentiate changes in appetite solely after use and changes in appetite both during sober and intoxicated periods. This distinction targets the disordered eating habits characteristic of CDA. Participants (N = 60) were 18 years or older and were cannabis users. In the first portion of the study, 11 risk markers (family and personal history of mental health disorders, number of daily sessions, frequency, form quantity, anxiety, depression, anxiety sensitivity, affectivity, difficulty in emotion regulation, and age of onset) were analyzed as potential predictors of the development of CDA, which is measured using the Cannabis-Dependent Appetite Measure (CDAM). In the second portion, participants (N = 40) from the first portion who were daily cannabis users, had a smartphone, had access to reliable internet or data, and were willing to receive text messages from the research team were included in the daily collection of self-reported eating and cannabis use habits. Within-subject correlations between times when eating and cannabis use occurred were calculated and correlated with scores on the CDAM as a way to validate that the CDAM measures the behaviors aimed at assessing. It was hypothesized that individuals who use cannabis more frequently (vs. less frequently) are more likely to develop Cannabis-Dependent Appetite (CDA) as potential risk markers (family and personal history of mental health disorder, number of daily sessions, frequency, form quantity, anxiety, depression, anxiety sensitivity, negative affectivity, and difficulty in emotion regulation) increase and others (age of onset and positive affectivity) decrease. Frequency (r(55) = .49, p < .001, r2 = .24), average number of daily sessions (r(55) = .45, p < .001, r2= .20), and quantity of cannabis concentrates (r(29) = .41, p = .024, r2= .16) were significantly positively associated with Cannabis-Dependent Appetite. Both age of onset (r(57) = -.29, p = .031, r2 = .08) and positive affectivity (r(60) = -.44, p < .001, r2 = .19) were significantly negatively correlated with CDA. A significant positive correlation was found between being high and eating (r(38) = .37, p = .018, r2 = .14). Data show the behavioral trends assessed using Ecological Momentary Assessment add validity to the CDAM.

Abstract:
INTRODUCTION:Diabetes Mellitus (DM) daily care requires personal effort.Patients must strictly:follow nutritional advice,implement lifestyle changes,and routinely and promptly take the drugs prescribed by health professionals among other guidelines.Eating Disorders(ED),such as anorexia and bulimia,are serious pathologies which can seriously affect the health of DM patients if they are not caught in time.However,if abuse of addictive substances is added to the scenario,the consequences for the health of the individual concerned can be very serious. OBJECTIVES:To analyse the variation in the cost of care processes of patients with DM(across all age groups)who also present with an ED and abuse addictive substances(caffeine,tobacco,alcohol,hallucinogens,cocaine,and opiates).These patients’ hospitalisation patterns will be considered for the time period between 2016 and 2018,and will include:type of discharge and admission,the origin of the patient,the type of care,and the patient’s needs during their hospital stay. MATERIAL AND METHODS: Database was provided by Grupo RECH–Red Española de Costes Hospitalarios–www.rechosp.org.The variables analysed included the main diagnoses of the aforementioned health problems.The following types of care were included:hospitalisation at home,in-house hospitalisation,major outpatient surgery,and emergencies,along with the type of patient discharge. METHODOLOGY:Descriptive statistics and Factorial Analysis of Mixed Data methodology(FAMD)were used to cluster the costs by main diagnoses due,jointly,to DM,ED,and the consumption of addictive substances.FactoMineR package has been used to obtain the outputs. RESULTS:There are significant increases in costs related to a patient's main diagnoses when dual pathology is included in the analysis.FAMD shows that surgical costs are similar to the use of substances such as caffeine,nicotine,hallucinogens and opiates,with alcohol standing out;that ward costs increase significantly for alcohol use;and that caffeine intake and hallucinogens are relevant in laboratory costs. CONCLUSIONS:These health problems generate distinct patterns of costs facing hospitals.They need to be identified and diagnosed before they become more serious making it necessary to establish the appropriate attention for the patient in time.
