Abstract

WHEN DISORDERED EATING AND DISORDERED THINKING HAPPEN TOGETHER IN A YOUNG PERSON? A CASE REPORT

Author(s): MH Lai, Susan MK Tan

Objective: This case report highlights the complexity of eating disorder in schizophrenia and outlines the diagnostic dilemma and challenges associated with the treatment. Methods: We report a 13 years old female with early-onset schizophrenia who developed anorexic symptoms and binge eating. Her eating disturbances worsened after olanzapine was commenced. Results: A combination of pharmacological and psychosocial intervention led to remission of schizophrenia co-morbid with eating disorder NOS. Conclusion: Co-morbid diagnosis of schizophrenia and eating disorder is not uncommon. Early diagnosis and evidence-based intervention are imperative as untreated illness greatly impacts the developmental trajectory of young people. Meeting the family’s needs improves family functioning which in turn improves the patient’s outcome.
