Dr. A. Ocana explores eating disorders through the lens of addiction, examining how underlying anxiety, trauma, and mood disorders contribute to their development. The discussion highlights the shared dopamine-driven pathways between eating disorders and other forms of addiction.
The discussion also covers the difference between disordered eating and an eating disorder, where self-harming behaviors like cutting fit into the picture, the role of body dysmorphia, and the important question of what should be addressed first in the treatment process.
