Something’s not right

Inpatient with an eating disorder

Inpatient with an eating disorder

I'm so scared. They're making me eat and I can't deal with it.

Let me explain...

I've been in hospital the last 6 weeks on a medical ward due to the physical injuries of a suicide attempt and I'm going to be in here we'll into the new year. The thing is I struggle with an eating disorder. They've become aware of it (despite the fact I'm not underweight) and have been heavily monitoring and controling my intake.

I feel so out of control.

I broke down at dinner and just couldn't do it. I can't eat anymore. I just can't.

@The-red-centaur Hey The-red-centaur I am hoping that the rehab food tastes better than the hospital food. Even if you can try a bit of the food offered that would be fantastic. You want to get well and get out of there dont you. You have to eat something sweety.xxx

Re: Inpatient with an eating disorder

@The-red-centaur sometimes rehab is separate and I was hoping yours was. At least you have a lovely room with a window at long last :). Can you get anyone to sneak in some Thai food for you. Just a few mouth fulls. I really think you are do extremely well with everything that you have been coping with.
