[quote=Anonymous]You need meds. And maybe a different kind of therapy if a year in to your current program you cannot perform a critical life-sustaining activity like eating adequate calories. Whether it's EMDR if you have a past trauma around food, CBT for anxiety, or ERP (part of CBT) for phobia, I would have a frank discussion with your current provider about your eating situation and explain that you need to see a psychiatrist for meds and need to be doing something different therapy-wise. Your current person may be able to do that different thing with you, or refer you to someone else. Your weight is a symptom of your mental illness. Yes, if you can eat brownies or something and put on a few pounds that's great (and I think you should look into whether you can eat some of the food that your kid is allergic to outside of the house, or find a way to prepare and consume it safely in your house), but you need to get your anxiety and phobias under control.[/quote]
