'At risk of developing an eating disorder'

[Synecdoche]

I am currently receiving CBT and the therapist is concerned about my eating and is going to write to my GP with her concerns that I am, in her opinion, at risk of developing an eating disorder.

Does anyone know what might happen as a result of this letter? I am worried about it. Thank you.

Can anyone help?

Just another evening ask. Thank you.

Why is your therapist concerned about your eating? It's there more you can share with us about your current weight and eating and why you are having cbt?

What concerns you mostly about this

I'm puzzled about why your therapist would do this. I think we need more info OP. If I were going to write to a GP (as a psychologist) usually it would be to communicate some information about risk and try to share the monitoring & management of said risk.

Ps I doubt your GP would do anything unless theconcern is very serious. Best way to head off the development of an eating disorder is by addressing the factors that place someone at risk of developing one. By having CBT I would hope you're having the opportunity to do this (ie addressing things like perfectionism, high standards, unhelpful thinking styles).

Thank you all so much for your replies - I have just typed out s huge response to you all but I don't think I am able to post it. Thank you for being so willing to listen and sorry to waste your time x

You are not wasting anyone’s time, this is your thread - your space to use as you wish.

Do you want to say more about what is worrying you ?

OP,
For you
