I'm sure you've already considered this, but get support for your son too, just because he doesn't seem affected, doesn't mean he isn't.
A very good friend has twin sisters who have been anorexic, for twenty years plus and whilst growing up, her parents focus was on getting them help and she still resents this. (Not in any way that shows to her parents, but I know how much it was a strain on her) I don't know the right thing to do, but just by being aware it will help. Best wishes to your family x |

I had very similar from my mum when she was under section a few years ago after having a breakdown over losing my dad - 'take me home. I want to go home' etc. It was heartbreaking but we had to trust in the medical professionals as she'd been ill for such a long time we all knew she needed help. My instincts towards her was to bundle her up and take her home but ultimately, it would've been the worst thing for her at that point.
I really feel for you and hope your daughter recovers soon x

Thank you all for sharing your experiences and thoughts - I've never had so many women want to hug me !
Like everything in life , you think its just you going through a certain situation , but the reality is there are always a lot more people either in same boat or who have got out of the boat on the right side I realise the need to look after ourselves because to be fair I think we've all neglected that recently. We have a few days away in the Lakes next week , and while it will be hard not seeing DD , she will have plenty of other visitors and the break should do us the world of good. Will feel really odd though going away without her |

Just a quick update. My DD has been in 5 weeks now. She is doing really well weight wise. Up from a low of 36.6kg to 40.2kg. Mentally she is finding everything still extremely difficult. My wife continues to get the brunt of the texts and tearful phone calls but hopefully things will improve on that score as her weight picks up.
This weekend she has been allowed out of her wheelchair on the ward for the first time , which perked her up, and if she does well today with her food, we have been promised she can go out with us for 3 hours tomorrow , which would be great and a reward for her ( and for us) for her hard work. The staff have been great since they began to understood her needs Edited at 01:32 PM. |
