This qualitative research examines the question of control within bulimic experience and how it varies from the beginning to the end of the therapy. We used two self-referral tools (self-definition and selfcharacterisation) with 42 patients, 24 at the beginning and 18 at the end of the therapy. A comparison between the two groups suggested that patients at the beginning of the therapy anticipated that the solution of the problem was improving the ability for individual control while patient ending the therapy more easily broke free from the confines of the control/lack of control dichotomy.

Abstract
This qualitative research examines the question of control within bulimic experience and how it varies from the beginning to the end of the therapy. We used two self-referral tools (self-definition and selfcharacterisation) with 42 patients, 24 at the beginning and 18 at the end of the therapy. A comparison between the two groups suggested that patients at the beginning of the therapy anticipated that the solution of the problem was improving the ability for individual control while patient ending the therapy more easily broke free from the confines of the control/lack of control dichotomy.
