Abstract: Diabulimia is an eating disorder seen in patients with T1DM, has drawn the media’s attention by the troubles it causes. T1DM, which is mostly seen in adolescents and children, requires individuals to follow a medical nutrition plan. This situation can challenge patients psycologically resulting in some eating disorder behaviors like binge eating, skipping meals and skipping insulin shots. It is critical to detect eating disorder behaviors early in order to prevent undesirable clinical features such as weight loss, poor glycemic control, diabetes complications, etc. Likewise, it is very important that the patient is treated and monitored by a multidisciplinary team. A better understanding and treatment of diabulimia will significantly improve the quality of life of individuals desired by this condition.
