Abstract
Pakistan's sociocultural factors significantly influence individuals' perceptions of body image, eating behaviors, and coping mechanisms. Cultural norms, societal expectations, and family dynamics play a crucial role in shaping young adults' attitudes towards food, body image, and emotional regulation (Liu et al., 2021; Das & Mishra, 2021). But it is worth noting that the current research landscape in the country has a restricted emphasis on the examination of Binge Eating Issues and their corresponding psychosomatic symptoms. The present body of research predominantly centers around anorexia nervosa and bulimia nervosa, hence creating a void in the literature (Cho, 2022). In order to bridge this existing deficiency, the use of Eidetic Psychotherapy can provide a comprehensive methodology for the treatment of psychosomatic illnesses (Sheikh, 1978). However, it is important to note that there exists a dearth of particular empirical studies examining the effectiveness of Eidetic Psychotherapy in addressing Binge Eating Issues among the young adult population. The investigation of the effectiveness of this intervention is of utmost importance due to its capacity to address the existing research void and contribute valuable empirical support for evidence-based interventions and facilitate the development of culturally sensitive strategies that cater to the distinctive psychosomatic symptoms encountered by young adults in Pakistan. Through a comprehensive examination of the efficacy of Eidetic Psychotherapy, scholars and professionals can enhance their comprehension and subsequently devise precise interventions aimed at more efficiently addressing the psychosomatic manifestations associated with the issues related Binge Eating in Pakistan.
