Discharged from ED service.

I had my discharge appointment today from the adult ED service. It was horrendous. Husband was there and she basically told him loads of ways he can 'support' me but basically being on my back about my anorexia. And he didn't even know what a balanced meal should look like. Where has he been all this time/all his life? I'm anxious that this is going to cause serious tension between husband and I and that I'll gain weight. In short, while I know this reaction is mad, anorexia is screaming at me right now.

It doesn’t sound like you are fit to be discharged yet. Did they agree it with you or just decide unilaterally?

The course of therapy has finished! They can't do any more for me unless things go tits up after discharge and then they put me on the waiting list for something else.

It doesn’t sound very helpful for them to expect your husband to provide the support if that will cause tensions in your relationship. Sorry you have been left in that position OP

Husband is ok really, I just don't really know how I'm going to cope with all this!
