Abstract

The case of a 28-year-old girl who suffered from bulimia and functional vomiting from early childhood is reported. 'The bulimia has the significance of an unconscious aggressive defense against the loss of love, that is to take aggressively the things which she fantasied were rightfully hers and also to castrate men as thwarting rivals. The vomiting appeared to be a symbolic rejection of the phallus and restitution to relieve the guilt occasioned by her castrative tendencies, although in a very masochistic way.'
