Psychosomatic eating disorder groups together difficulties with eating in which emotional and psychological factors play a central role, expressed through eating behavior.

How is it understood? Stress, anxiety, and other emotional experiences can influence how and how much a person eats, creating a close link between mood and eating.
Which specialist provides support? The psychologist and the psychoanalyst work on the emotional component of these difficulties. If you feel that your emotions shape the way you eat, reaching out to a mental health professional can help you understand it and take better care of yourself.
