My 18 yr old DD has developed an eating disorder. Unfortunately we have experience of this with our other daughter, but she was under 18 at the time and we went through a very unhelpful CAMHS process with her.
I have no experience or knowledge of how to help a person when they are technically an adult and in charge of themselves What happens, what can I do to help my 18 yr old?
She is restricting her eating serverely. She already sees a therapist (for other MH issues) who knows about this and is trying to encourage her to see the GP. It's very slow progress because she is unwilling to talk about her disordered eating or even admit she has a problem with food.
Please can someone talk me through what options are available to us?
