Do you often feel out of control around food? Are you continually trying to restrict your food intake, only to “blow it” by binging on your favorite "forbidden” foods? Are these binges usually followed by self-induced vomiting, use of laxatives, feelings of guilt, depression? Are your binge-purge episodes becoming more and more habitual, perhaps a central aspect of your day-to-day life? If your answer is "yes” to many of these questions, you are invited to participate in a research project at the University of Oregon Psychology Department designed to better understand the special problems of persons with eating disorders.
