support groups
Quote From: bayeroneMy 15 yr. old daughter was just admitted into a hospital for anorexia. We caught it "early," but because she isn't "as bad as" the other girls she thinks she doesn't belong there. This is so frightening and overwhelming. We are in the southern california area. Does anyone know of a support group for family and friends? We all feel so helpless and desperate, her illness is effecting us all. How do we keep our lives from falling apart while we hope and pray that she gets well? Please check out anad.com -- there you will find support groups near you. In San Diego, there is an ANAD group for family members. Also, it might be helpful to look into family therapy, because, as you say, eating disorders do affect the WHOLE family.
I hope you find the help you're looking for :)
