  • Title: Eating disorders, addictions, and unconscious fantasy.
    Author: Schneider JA.
    Journal: Bull Menninger Clin; 1995; 59(2):177-90. PubMed ID: 7795562.
    Abstract:
    Using concepts from object relations theory, the author extends the theories of eating disorders advanced by Freud and Bruch. Ogden's sensation-based autistic-contiguous position, Tustin's related concepts of autistic shapes and objects, and Fairbairn's theory of object relations are related to the addictive nature of eating disorders. A clinical illustration demonstrates how these recent theoretical concepts can help explain the unique qualities of the transference and countertransference that develop when working with eating disorder patients.
