*hugs*
Try not to worry or think about it too much until tomorrow (easier said than done, I know), but there's nothing you can do until tomorrow.
I really hope that they get something sorted for you, you need some support at the moment.
Take care, love

It may just be me but when I have no support, knowing exactly when a should expect a referral to come through for say, a dietitian appointment becomes important to me and I need to know all the details so I don't think I am being strung along or mislead as to what is actually being offered again.
I think he may be looking at another aspect of finding a way to treat the ED, can you make sure he knows your seeing nobody for couselling either because this needs to be considered at some point to. Be it by the GP surgery [some have in house or visiting counsellors] or back to general mental health services for a psychology assessment/input.
Hope that helps it seem clearer xx
Im the same i have to know the details etc but my doctor, well he isnt the best communicator & he doesnt explain things well. I asked him to re-explain things but i was kind of pushed out the door & told to ring up or wait for a letter.
It could possibley be in a general hospital but he specifically said ED services, & yeah so im still pretty confused.
Thank you for the advice.
xx
I guess he could well mean back to the same ED team, many are based in general hospital sites now, its just my old fashioned system I am used to here where the complete governance and management of mental health and physical health is different, we have 2 trusts one for each! I hope you can go back to seeing them and work something more effective out.
I don't know if you didn't read it earlier in the thread, it was added on as an edit, or if you didn't want to think about it, but I was wondering what your thoughts were on the following.
Also, I forgot to ask, but its important.. Why do you think you got worse under their care. Did you feel they were not caring enough, was the treatment not right? Either way, you need to think about how you can stop this happening again, and be clear about how you are going to try and prevent it. Sometimes it is necessary to actually tell them what you want and need. To give them the direction, after all you know you best, is it a dietry approach that helps to start with or a psychological approach, would CBT techniques help you rationalise or would you like to try a day patient programme, is it the practicalities of maintaining a healthy lifestyle that you struggle with.
What do you feel has changed for you since the discharge, and was the discharge your decision or theirs or combined?
It could well be the same ED services, i really am completly unsure so its all really up in the air at the moment which really scares me.
I never saw the edited bit *oops*. [& you are really making me think:p]
I really dont know why it got worse if im honest, i guess its the fact that denial is a huge issue for me. & i also waited almost 2 years for the treatment i did recieve & in that time everything became completly normal to me.
Also, i think that a more diet based kind of treatment is what i need more than a pyscological one, which i stressed the day i was discharged & was told a letter would be sent to my dr explaining what id asked for, but no such letter has been sent. & ive been waiting for nutritionists etc for 8 months now, when the waiting list was 3 weeks long [i have tried to follow up but get no where].
The discharge was their idea. & i agreed in the end because i didnt want to be somewhere i was told couldnt help me as they used the phrase "giving up" when talking to me about discharging me. Also, at the time my denial was alot stronger than it is now. I regret agreeing now, but whats done is done i guess :\
sorry, i really am, do not mean to bump this i am just struggiling beyond belief right now & dont wanna take up room with a new post.
could i please have a hug? i feel so lost.
Im not doing so well to be honest.
im really, really strugiling today. My head is screaming at me & i just feel like crying.
im supposed to re-phone the doctors up aswell & i really dont think i have enough strength.
Sorry you're struggling babe, you really don't deserve this.
I hope you can get some more sleep later as well
Try not to freak about having to eat that thing later & tea, your body needs the food desperately..you won't see it but you do
They added more things to the list ive got to eat in front of people tonight.
