[Sweet bulimia, salty bulimia. Emotional profiles and weight status].
In this study we precise eating and non specific symptomatology of 56 patients with DSM III bulimia syndrome. Results confirm our first hypotheses, particularly the distinction between sweety and salty bulimia and the heterogeneity of patients with this syndrome. We specially studied two types of clinical dimensions: emotional components and weight status. According to emotional profile, bulimics differ from other psychopathologic populations and present some particular features. Impulsivity is a characteristic of sweety bulimics, dysphoria and affective lability characterise salty ones.
