Hospital

[Karen]

My life is over . My doctor is phoning the CMHT to send me to an eating disorder unit.

She said if I don't agree I will be sectioned. She won't change her mind and I'm supposed to sit here and wait for it to happen.

My weight is too far from where it needs to be to avoid it. I've had it

karen I really don't know what to say. I know from a medical point of view they are doing what they think is best, I know this is so hard for you to understand.
Stay safe darlin and I look forward to you returning stronger and healthier than ever before. Your advice on this site is invaluable don't lose site that you help so many and everyone is here for you. Just as you give there are so many here to give to you.
Karen, even a short spell in hospital doesn't mean we won't all be here for you when you return. Don't worry Karen, I am lighting a candle to see you through.

lots of love always Sax x

Thank you for letting me know straight away so I wouldn't be wondering.

Hun your weight is now so very very dangerously low that your doctor just can't ignore it as she has a duty of care towards you.

I know this is not what you want but the alternative doesn't bear thinking about.

What are the arrangements and when will you have to go - if you let me know where then I can stay in contact with you during your stay ok.

Love Piglet

Oh Karen, I feel for you so much

Although it is probably what you need to help you to overcome your problems, it must be so very hard for you when your control over things is taken away from you.

It will, however, be much better for you longterm if you voluntarily agree to being admitted rather than being sectioned.

Hoping so much that things work out for you, Karen.

Lots of love Kate xxxx

Hi there Karen,

I know it doesn't sound like it to you, but your doctor has your best interests at heart. And yes, this will do you good in the long term, but will be painful in the short term.

When we get bad, whatever we have wrong with us, it is usually painful at first but it pays off in the end.

There's nothing more I'd love to see than for you get some kind of normality back in your life. And I still believe this is possible.

Just want to send you loads of positive vibes your way.

Karen sweetheart, I know how much you don't want this and you say your life is over, but I think sunshine that it is far more likely to be the case if you didn't agree.
I can honestly say I can see how hard this is for you and I am thinking of you so much. However sunshine, I want to see you alive to fight another day.
Happyone

Oh dear Karen, I'm really sorry hun.

I know it's so hard for you right now, but I'm sure like everyone has said, your Doctor has your best interests at heart.

I know it will be tough, but you will come out of this a stronger person.

I don't suffer from an eating disorder myself, but I've had friends who did, and I know how difficult it was for them.

If you can just hang in there and stay strong this might do you some good.

Thinking of you hun, and sending lots of hugs.

Love and hugs from shoegal xxx
