[QUOTE="Josie, post: 385871, member: 1792"] I am sorry people are not more understanding. My daughter has mostly lost touch with her friends in her illness. I think we need to focus on getting them better and then they will be able to find friends. I agree with Smallworld about targeting her anxiety. If she were my child, I would find a therapist who would do exposures with her over eating things that she thought might make her choke as well as work on medications to bring the anxiety down. When we took my daughter to the Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD) treatment center, we had an initial appointment with the therapist and then the exposures were done by an intern who was working on his PhD. My daughter did exposures for 3 hours 3 times a week. Although it was uncomfortable for her, the intern developed a good relationship with her and could get her to do things I could not. He was used to getting people to do things they were afraid to do. [/QUOTE]
