Diabulimia, also known as 'Eating Disorder - Diabetes Mellitus Type I' (ED-DMT1) is a severely clinically under-recognized condition, where diabetic individuals essentially omit doses of insulin in order to purge calories and control their weight. It is a complicated illness with multiple etiologies and potentially lethal complications. In this book, the author fuses her unique perspective as a former diabulimia patient with her medical training to expound upon all aspects of the condition. Including sections intended for the clinician, patient, and general layperson, this book is unprecedented in the detailed and nuanced information offered. The author's personal experience also enables her to describe in painstaking detail the psychology underlying diabulimia, the hoops that patients must jump through in order to conceal the illness from their close contacts and physicians, the destructive complications and daily travails, the difficulties encountered during treatment, and the realistic stipulations surrounding recovery and relapse. Leaving no stone unturned, Diabulimia: Towards Understanding, Recognition, and Healing, adopts a scholarly medical approach towards important components such as history, epidemiology, symptoms, methods of execution, screening, prevention, treatment, recovery, and relapse. It synthesizes clinical testament and patient interviews with existing evidence from the medical literature, and questions that have thus far been ignored are addressed in technical and concise terms. Whether you are a clinician, a patient, a parent, friend, or spouse of someone with Type I diabetes or diabulimia, this book is an invaluable resource - a go-to guide for anyone seeking insightful answers and reference for the tough questions arising from the course of this exquisitely complex and toxic illness.
