[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My sister was severely anorexic and spent months in and out of the hospital during her high school years. It nearly killed her and she has life-long health consequences from it. It was terrifying. You need a team of doctors, not dietitians. [/quote] This. She likely needs to go inpatient for a time, OP. She is dangerously ill. At 5'2" her BMI is lower than 98% of girls her age and height. Anorexia can be very risky re: electrolytes and cardiac issues. Her weight is so low already, this is not something that 45 min of therapy is going to put a floor in. She needs to be stabilized and monitored before psych interventions can take effect. [/quote]
