Abstract:
In this article discuses basic pre-suppositions of the Ivan Boszormenyi-Nagy's conception of invisible loyalties and makes general characteristic of anorexia nervosa with attention to family and personal (individualistic) etiological trouble elements. Based on therapeutic experience during the work with anorexia patients and their families, it is becoming an expanded presupposition that one of the fundamental reasons of protruding anorexia nervosa is family loyality problems, children's loyality conflicts and troubles with the give-and-take process.
