Other Specified Feeding and Eating Disorder (OSFED)

This is a diagnostic category for clinically significant eating disorders that don't meet the full criteria for anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa, or binge eating disorder. It includes atypical presentations of these disorders and other specified feeding or eating disorders. Treatment for OSFED is tailored to the specific symptoms and needs of the individual, often involving a combination of psychotherapy, nutritional counselling, and sometimes medication.
