Considering patient experiences at the symptom level and over time can aid in refining or reorganizing treatments to better fit patient needs.PMID:37310300 | PMC:PMC10264834 | DOI:10.1017/S0033291721004451 (Source: Psychological Medicine)

Appetite. 2023 Apr 4:106552. doi: 10.1016/j.appet.2023.106552. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTBody Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) is a serious psychiatric condition that has long been identified as an important risk factor for the development of eating-related difficulties. However, little is known about the mechanisms that might explain this association. Therefore, the current study aimed to explore the link between body dysmorphic symptomatology and disordered eating, and test whether this relationship is mediated by higher levels of shame and self-criticism. This cross-sectional study included 291 women from the community, ag...
