What about Columbia in NYC? Its a free program and it helped me a lot. Message me if you'd like more info. Its New York State Psychiatric Institute (NYSPI), eating disorder unit.
Hey, sweetie. I am sorry you are dealing with inadequate care and the nightmare of trying to get funding. The whole treatment inaccessibility issue pisses me off to no end! ROAR! Hang in there. *hugs offered* I like the sound of Castlewood better than Mirasol; for long-standing ED's, 60 days is rarely adequate duration. I will be thinking positive thoughts for your funding endeavors! Agreed re: intelligence bias, btw -- I run into this a lot even with non-psych medical issues.
It is horrible here. Treatment wise I mean. Makes me so angry. I mean, its pretty bad we have to go out of the province for treatment. FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT for this ....
duuude come to treatment in minnesota- the anna westin house has alot of what you're looking for. and i could visit you! ---or maybe check myself in as well- see my last video. i'm kind of in a similar situation
Even if your treatment center says it has a set in and out time, like 45-60 days? You can be there for less than that or longer than that.
I would push for the longer term one though. And then maybe come home and go to EH for follow up for a few months like this year ya know? Do all you've been doing at home just with the extra help of a long term treatment ahead of you before you start out with the work at home.
Kind of like drug addicts going to rehab and then a half-way house.
I'm really angry on your behalf that there's none of the help you need in your country. I am very glad you have the balls to fight to get the help you need instead of whatever they want to throw at you. Fight smart, you can win.
@Entilodont I think I will try to fight if it gets rejected. There's nothing else I can do... nowhere else I can go. And maybe me getting funding will allow someone else to get it later down the road.

Are you depressed because this world has nothing to offer you, or because it does have things to offer and you just can't attain them?

@mopme2008 That is an incredibly complex question which also assumes that one or the other is true... which neither strictly is.
