they took me out of the room and the doctor talked to my mom!. thats when i was officially diagnosed with anorexia!. i knew what was going on but i tried to deny it!. when i got back in the car i asked my mom what the doctor said and she told me!. i got mad and was screaming and crying!.!.!.!.i was in total denial!. my mom set me up an appointment with a therapist!. 3 weeks later i got a nutritionist!. a few months later i got a phsychiatrist (and got on Prozac) and soon after that we got a family therapist!.

A doctor would say the person requires psychological help!. Anorexia is a disease of the mind and the body!. They need more help then just "eat some food!."Www@Answer-Health@Com
Because eating disorders are psychological rather physiological, s/he'd most likely refer an anorexic to a counselor or rehab!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Ask them overly personal questions, listen to the answers, not bothering to hide their disgust then tell them they can have anti depressants or go on a waiting list to see a councilor!.!.!.could be up to 3 months waitingWww@Answer-Health@Com
probably say they had a problem and would recomemend them checkign into a drug rehab center (its for addictions, even the ones that dot evolve drugs)Www@Answer-Health@Com
