[QUOTE="1905, post: 402762, member: 2668"] Don't beat yourself up for any of this, you are doing all you can from where you are. And then some. Right now, your priority is difficult child, husband will have to handle the homefront. I commend all your doing to help your daughter. I hope you can give me some insight to your treatment. I am recovering from anorexia myself and I'm doing well. I was wondering why you're there all day. Don't they have all these group therapy type things for body image, self-esteem, and how a person needs to be mindful of their body, plan for the future, too many to get into....but, do they do that there? It seems that parents need to be away to get this work done- this is just asked out of curiosity-plus of course, individual therapy and family therapy- with your whole family over the phone. Of course there is visiting hours, but if you're the one trying to "get her to eat" can't you do that at home? I'm just totally curious and totally non-judgmental here. The 3 treatment centers I was at, all patients ate together- we had 2 11 year olds at Princeton. The adults and children were separated for groups however. What is a refeeding specialist? The change has to come from within, the places I went to eating was all done with behavior modification. Its a mental disorder, eating is beyond difficult. I'm sorry that difficult child is struggling! I know how hard it is! It's also hard to see your family upset, I'm sure difficult child is upset that you're upset. The whole thing is so awful! I am sorry you are going through this! (((HUGS)) [/QUOTE]
