Question: Will eating disorder clinics care if you're a vegan!?
okay so i'm a vegan and i am thinking about going to an eating disorder clinic to get recovery!. anyways, i don't want to have to eat meat or dairy!. it's not about the weight gain, it's a part of my ethical foundation!. i became a vegan wayyy before my eating disorder!. will they force me to eat meat and dairy!? i will eat other things to gain weight, just not meat and dairy!.Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
I certainly don't mean to be insensitive here, as I have had to seek recovery in the past myself!.
Sometimes we don't always know what is best for us and although it may be very possible that a facility will work with you on this, my concern is that you are going in closed minded and that may effect the way that you are treated by staff and other clients!.
Instead of saying flat out that you Will Not eat something, why don't you go and address your issues,kindly explain your beliefs and go from there!.
An open mind will get you alot farther as far as your recovery will go!.
You can't go somewhere asking for help and then telling them the rules, you know!?!?!?

You may however do some research into vegan eating disorder clinics!. It would not surprise me at all if there weren't quite a few of them available to help you!.

I hope that you didn't take offense, I am always to the point when i answer, especially when it comes to the reality of a rehabilitation facility!. It helps you to stay if you know what you are walking into!!
Good Luck and Best Wishes!!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Sweetie!.!.!.!.!.

it is not healthy to not eat meat or dairy!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!. i know that you probably have heard that millions of times before!.!.!.!. but it is true!.!.!.!.

Listen,
We are humans!. Humans NEED DAIRY and NEED MEAT!.!.!.!. you can cut back on it a little bit!.!.!. but it has all the vitamins you need to live!.!.!.!. I used to be a vegan and I ended up with bone issues!.!.!.!.!. and I ended up with an eating disorder as well!.!.!.!.!.!. than i started eating meat and dairy again!.!.!.!. (it was NOT easy!.!.!.!.) and than after about a year and a few months my eating disorder was gone!.!.!. and i was feeling a lot better about my self!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.

So overall!.!.!.!.!.!.
Yes!.!.!. they will care!.!.!. because they want you to be healthy!.!.!. and if you don't eat those two VITAL parts of a human's diet!.!.!.!. than of course they will make you eat them so that you will become healthy!.

Hope that helps hun!.!.!.!. good luck!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
