PLEASE please listen to me, DO NOT GO HERE. I cannot stress this enough! Im not saying to not get help, in fact please do, but not from here. Everything Im about to say isnt an exaggeration. I have PTSD from this place and I was only there a week! I have nightmares and panic attacks even a year later. They restricted most people from going outside with any valid reason, some they had a valid reason for but for most they didnt. I didnt feel the sun on my skin or breathe fresh air for a whole week. You wont be allowed to leave. It is a prison. You can only get out by keeping your head down and saying nothing. You cannot contact your family or the outside world. IF by small chance they let you, they tell you not to say anything bad about it. They keep you exhausted with back to back activities, more than half of which have nothing to do with eating disorders. ACTUAL PRISONERS HAVE MORE RIGHTS than the people who attend inpatient. Which they recommended anyone to regardless of whether or not they actually need that level of care. They will tell you that youre in inpatient because of health problems, but they cannot give you an answer for what those health problems are. After talking to other patients, they were ALL recommended for inpatient regardless of what level of care they were at. If you do have any serious medical issues not related to eating disorders they will not allow you the things you need to manage them. They say that they dont punish you for not eating everything, but they force you to supplement anything you dont eat no matter how small even if its rotten fruit. If you dont, you spend 3 hrs in a room by yourself. If you refuse 3 times they force a feeding tube regardless of whether or not you actually need it. They control your water intake, and if what they give you isnt enough to hydrate you theyll give you a feeding tube. They will put you in danger. This is the stuff horror movies are made of.
