[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Are you OP? My one concern is your mention of ballet. It is a very visual art form, very perfectionistic (which can exacerbate anxiety), very focused on the look of the body.. I also realize it is an art form that is very soothing to anxiety - both things can be true at the same time. So just proceed cautiously. Because ballet can be intense and burn a lot of calories, this is an example where I would force the meal. She simply has to eat a sufficient high calorie meal before she dances or she has to miss class that day. Don't let her push the meal off until after class when her muscles feel tight and she is ready to relax.[/quote] DP. This is a kind way of saying that ballet gives girls eating disorders. Maybe not all girls but nearly all of them. [/quote]
