However she'll still hate it because she'll probably be on watch 24/7 and forced to eat when she doesn't want to. She'll also have therapy and won't be allowed to do certain things associated with eating discorded behavior; like excessive exercising and cutting up food really really tiny. Basically they'll just force her to eat and keep an eye on her to try and bring up her weight. Encourage her to try and get better as if she fights it too much she may need to have a feeding tube which isn't nice :( There are a lot of documentaries on anorexia which might give you an idea of what treatment centres are like and what your friend is going through. try watching this: (theres more then the one part) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RZm2g9FLrGA Take care hun and i hope your friend gets better xx Don’t worry there won’t be anything like that.
