Posted March 6, Reviewed by Lybi Ma. After the initial couples therapy for relationships with eating disorders assessment sessions, Ana and Jacob began their work. Their last session ended like this. She needs you. When she talks, listen, just listen. The elevator was so slow! Jacob had rushed out of the office to find Ana. He had never been in such a slow elevator! He was worried about Ana and wanted to help. Listen, just listen. He left repeating the therapist's words in his head.
Jacob saw the car but not Ana. Then he spotted her, over by one of the support pillars, leaning against it, sobbing. Jacob hugged her, and she melted into his arms. I am scared to hear what you are going to say.
I feel so bad about myself. The binge eating does affect me, but it does not affect my love for you. I would like to talk about it with Dr. Lee because I need help. She was very motivated after the session with Dr. This means that her eating was regular without any binge eating. Most people with binge eating disorder experience ebbs and flows in behavior, alternating between periods that are behavior-free and periods with frequent binge episodes.
When they were first married, Jacob reacted. When he noticed Ana getting upset about binge eating, he would get upset and either shut down or raise his voice. This only made matters worse and would usually lead to a fight and an exacerbation of her behaviors.
They identified behaviors such as modifying foods you buy, ignoring it when foods disappear or the kitchen is left a mess, or feeling controlled by the person with the eating disorder.
