The traditional physical and cosmetic-centered model without paying serious attention on
the underlying psychosocial issues of care are ill suited to successful treatment outcome of
obesity. The objective of this article is to report a case of a retired Malay army sergeant
who presented with night eating syndrome (NES) with morbid obesity and dysthymia, and
to discuss the psychobiological aspect of the case including to evaluate the effectiveness
of the combination treatment of pharmacotherapy and cognitive behavior therapy
alongwith diet counseling. The diagnosis was made by using the Structured Clinical
Interview Diagnosis (SCID) for DSM-III-R diagnosis and the severity of depression was
assessed by Hamilton Depressive Rating Scale. The patient’s body mass index was 45,
He was found to have dysthymia and the Hamilton Depressive Rating Scale score was 13.
We found that the combination of pharmacotherapy, cognitive behavior therapy and
nutritional education with the help of the physician proved to be effective in treating morbid
obesity with NES and Dysthymia |
