Hi there Jamie...
It sounds like you are having a difficult time with eating...understandably....it is a hard adjustment...but, nutrition can help you to think clearer and really help you to make the best decisions possible at this crucial time...weight is not your worth, it does not define who you are in this world....your spirit and soul are so much more valuable than how you look.....
Food is good...a source of nutrition to nurture and develop your body and self...
Try to hear what I am saying amidst all the eating disordered voices in your head, I know it is tough.
You are brave and strong and can overcome this ed!
love, j.

Amanda -
Parents can be amazingly insensitive at times. My parents refused to pay for my college because of "all the $$ spent on helping me get over my eating disorder", at least that is the best excuse I can figure that they use....at any rate, I have put myself through college and grad school...it has been tough...and I know how hard it is to wish your parents would back you in your recovery, education, etc....I figure my parents did the best the could within the limits of their perspective of the situation....just know you are not alone....
so glad you are blogging with us!
take care!

How are you doing? Are you feeling okay about staying home from Orlando to protect your health? What is happening on the inpatient treatment front?
I am hoping that you are taking good care of yourself and eating well...we need you!
