If you tell your therapist you have problems with eating and a eating disorder can your therapist tell your parents if your under 18?

Logically, I know this is not true, but I believe it. Now I want an eating disorder really badly.

She doesn’t know that I know about it. She hasn’t told any of us about it (her friends). She is one of those people that appears very strong. Since she hasn’t told me about it I feel like I shouldn’t tell her I know, so how can I help her?

I would especially appreciate advice from people who either have an eating disorder or have had one, since you would understand what she is going through more than I do.

I am going to start seeing an eating disorder specialist next week and eventually do a partial hospitalization program possibly. How hard is it to recover from anorexia or an eating disorder not otherwise specified (EDNOS)? Does the therapy really help? What exactly happens in treatment that helps? Do they make you force yourself to eat?

Today my boyfriend was hospitalized again. This time around I hope they actually focus on what the cause of his depression and that is his eating disorder. He has been suffering from it since he was younger and has been in treatment before but has relapsed. My question is what is it that I can do to help him. No matter what I’m supporting him, he’s tried telling me to go, that he doesn’t deserve me, but I know that the man I fell in love with is still there. I’m having some problems coping with this on my own and am in serious need of people to talk to if they have ever dealt with my kind of situation. My sister suffered from bulimia a few years ago so I do know the basics about ED but I’ve never really seen it happen in men and I know it does more frequently than people think, I just need to know from someones perspective how to cope. I don’t want to lose him, I love him more than anything in this world and his being sick is killing me…Help!

If you have an eating disorder, and nobody knows about it, how can you tell if they suspect you have one? What kind of little hints do they drop to find out on their own? Do they keep offering you snacks to see your reaction? There has to be someting out of the ordinary that would give it away that they are trying to figure it out without coming forth and outright asking, like detective work. What are some tell-tale signs?

What personality traits make someone more likely to develop an eating disorder and what signs point to the start of one?

Christopher

I mean in the begining stages, before she starts to quit eating. What are beginning thoughts she thinks before the actual disorder happens? What causes eating disorders? What are outward signs?

Also does anyone know of an eating disorder treatment place in Kansas, I can not find one. I am to the point where I know I need to get help, but need to find it nearby.
