Resumo
Segundo a Sociedade Brasileira de Psiquiatria Clínica (SBPC), a cada ano milhões de indivíduos desenvolvem transtornos alimentares que em alguns casos podem até colocar suas vidas em risco iminente. Pode-se dizer que os Transtornos Alimentares possuem uma correlação entre saúde física e mental, e por isso, observa-se que as doenças ligadas aos TAs, são tratadas pela maior parte das pessoas como um fator estético, desconsiderando que o fator de maior relevância é a vida. Diante dessa realidade, é necessário se atentar para a importância dos tratamentos na prevenção das doenças relacionadas a esse transtorno. A Terapia Cognitiva Comportamental (TCC) foca na maneira como as pessoas pensam e como reagem a esses pensamentos, auxiliando na mudança dos pensamentos disfuncionais. Portanto, TCC tem por base a mudança das crenças disfuncionais e desenvolvimento de reestruturação cognitiva para substituí por crenças funcionais (Beck, 2011). O tema foi sugerido devido a vivência de umas das autoras, que possuía obesidade e compulsão alimentar com início ainda na fase da infância, onde ela buscava compensar as questões de ansiedade nos alimentos. Durante o processo de emagrecimento ela observou a importância do acompanhamento psicológico e a aplicação das técnicas da abordagem da TCC para trabalhar as crenças limitantes. Além disso, levou-se em consideração também o decorrente aumento da população com doenças relacionadas aos TAs, a visibilidade e discussões sobre o tema e a preocupação dos órgãos de saúde na tratativa e conscientização da população. Por essa razão, entende-se que as técnicas da TCC são fundamentais para os profissionais que atuam com pacientes submetidos a doenças relacionadas ao TAs. Assim, o artigo em questão promove a difusão do tema entre os estudiosos da abordagem, e contribui com futuros alunos que se interessarem por explorar o assunto que está fortemente presente em nosso cotidiano.
According to the Brazilian Society of Clinical Psychiatry (SBPC), every year millions of individuals develop eating disorders that in some cases can even put their lives at imminent risk. It can be said that Eating Disorders have a correlation between physical and mental health, and therefore, it is observed that diseases linked to EDs are treated by most people as an aesthetic factor, disregarding that the most relevant factor is life. Given this reality, it is necessary to pay attention to the importance of treatments in preventing diseases related to this disorder. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the way people think and how they react to those thoughts, helping to change dysfunctional thoughts. Therefore, CBT is based on changing dysfunctional beliefs and developing cognitive restructuring to replace them with functional beliefs (Beck, 2011). The theme was suggested due to the experience of one of the authors, who had obesity and binge eating that began in childhood, where she sought to compensate for anxiety issues regarding food. During the weight loss process, she observed the importance of psychological support and the application of CBT approach techniques to work on limiting beliefs. In addition, the resulting increase in the population with diseases related to EDs, the visibility and discussions on the topic and the concern of health bodies in dealing with and raising awareness among the population were also taken into account. For this reason, it is understood that CBT techniques are fundamental for professionals who work with patients suffering from diseases related to EDs. Thus, the article in question promotes the dissemination of the topic among scholars of the approach, and contributes to future students who are interested in exploring the subject that is strongly present in our daily lives.
