This lesson begins with a female client, 28 years, suffering with bulimia, alcoholism, depression and hypoglycemia. She is still in denial about her father's suicide when she was 17. She left home at 19, feeling rejected, and became bulimic at this time. By age she was an alcoholic. Dr. Kappas takes her through stages of loss.
