Short-term course of depressive symptoms in patients with eating disorders
FS Wamboldt, NJ Kaslow, WJ Swift and M Ritholz
After inpatient treatment focused on aberrant eating behavior, six
depressed normal-weight bulimic patients showed little improvement in
depressive or eating symptoms. Four depressed anorexic patients with
bulimic behavior improved in both areas, and five restricting anorexic
patients had an intermediate response.
