Dr. Mona seems to have gathered information regarding eating disorders from watching Lifetime 20 years ago. presented a HUGE disservice to anyone that watches this & honestly an embarrassment. for the wellbeing of patients (eating disorders begin anywhere from age 6 to 56), GET EDUCATED! remove this video that just provided more thinspo for either getting as skeletal as possible or no one will think you are sick enough for inpatient, or to conceal your anorexia so well that you dont look ill.
Read Explaining colours to a blind man. Not only will it enlighten many as to what living with a mental illness and an eating disorder is like, it also gives comfort to those sufferers who think there is no hope and that they are alone. It is very informative, sometimes shocking but also very funny in parts. All in all, a good read and highly recommended.
but its scary for someone to with AN to even take it (i used to take it only at night then eat a small amount but take a sleeping pill to ensure i wouldnt eat too much even though things tasted better) and a few freinds enjoyed a try of this pill so thats another thng i suspect docs think about before rxing it out. anyone who liked smoking up loved the pill. (im not a pot smoker or fan, the pill was ok though)
To say the least even how i took it it did help me eat more, so its helpful.

Marinol (the pot pill) deffinately increases appetite but also made eating enjoyable - gave me a taste for sweet potatoes ;)
i dont know ow often this med is rx'd but it should be more often for AN [side effects aren't bad relaxing]
