People with bulimia nervosa appear to be at increased risk for seasonal affective disorder (SAD), according to survey findings published in the January issue of the International Journal of Eating Disorders.
Among eating disorder patients with bulimia, the researchers found that more than 40% had SAD or subsyndromal SAD. In contrast, only 10.4% of subjects with other eating disorders also had seasonal depression. Dr. Masaki Yamatsuji of the Osaka Dai-ichi Hospital in Osaka City and colleagues obtained their findings from questionnaires completed by 90 people diagnosed with an eating disorder who were living in Kyoto. All but two of the respondents were female.
