[quote=Anonymous]+1 to a lot of the advice you’re getting. If it’s anorexia you likely need to jump quickly, like asap, and get a team in place or in-patient. Top priority is to get all vitals checked and maybe heart specialist. Next is to restore weight. Therapy is often less effective until she is back at a normal (for her) weight, and a dietitian for her to talk to may only add stress. Google Minnesota starvation experiment for effect on brain and attitude. We did family based therapy and maudsley diet (which is the parents plating food), and an exchange system first. It was horrible and stressful but seems to be working.[/quote]
