Thank you so much for this presentation. In addition to working in OT and loving the mental health aspect of our field, I also have a college aged bi-sexual son with sensory and controlled eating issues. He worries me to no end. Your presentation has given me some great insight into new approaches and how I can best discuss this topic with him. Thank you!!!

There were many good parts, though I am concerned by the presenter's statement at the end regarding treating adolescents with ARFID basically the same as she would treat adolescents with anorexia. I have years of experience in the eating disorder treatment realm of OT, and there are very significant differences between ARFID and anorexia that require specific considerations and treatment approaches. If it is possible to take that part out I would highly recommend doing so.

I LOVE how you incorporated how important it is for us OTs to not only address a client's emotional regulation, but sensory processing as well to desensitize the CNS in order to achieve overall regulation. I work in a chronic pain outpatient clinic and the entire time I was taking the course I was thinking about how all of your information coincides perfectly with the biopsychosocial approach we use in clinic.

by

Maddie spent a long time discussing the prevalence and presentation of disorders within the EDO umbrella, and some on evaluation, but less time speaking about what exactly treatment can look like. I think this is a very under-served area by occupational therapy, and I wish the presenter would have elaborated more on treatment and how OTs can become a bigger part of the treatment team in these settings.
by
Julie

I'm pretty sure I was anorexic, but was able to overcome it through the use of art and other nonverbal communication and self discovery. Back in 1970s I did a study on AN for an assignment at SFSU. One thing that stood out about AD victims was an overwhelming all pervasive need to control something in one's life 2/2 overbearing control freak/strict parents. These feelings of not having control of your own life give birth to the behavior of not eating as a way of taking back control of your body.
