The method is based on qualitative interviews with seven women who were all in the same treatment for eight weeks at Capio AnorexiCenter in Malmö. The women have also redone tests that were done right before and right after the treatment. These results have been compared. I found that the daycare treatment programme was not enough for these women with these kinds of serious eating disorders. They seem to have recovered first when they got institutional care. Today most of the women describe themselves as they are free from their worst symptoms, but they say that they still have negative thoughts about food and their appearances sometimes. Two women are still in some kind of therapy. Most of them have been affected or are still affected mentally by suffering from depressions. According to common psychoanalytic theories, an explanition to why some get these illnesses, concern mainly relation between the mother and her doughter. If these two have problems to separate in the early part of the doughters life, her development as an individual will depress. From a psychoanalytic perspective, bulimia nervosa and anorexia nervosa could be explained as potential space and transitional object or as a defense against feelings of inferority and failure.
