What is the worst that mental health can do for eating disorders?

Shark Atack Asked by funadvice over 2 years ago, 8 answers.

the school nurse said that if i don't let her weigh me or anything, then she feels like we cant make progress then she is going to have to transfer me to mental health, though she told me she don't want to (yh ryt) - so my question is really , what is...

the worst that mental health can do or would do if i dnt allow them to weigh me either?

A school cannot do anything to you without you concent..
If it becomes a real major problem, get your parents in on it.
Schools can get in trouble for forcing you to do stuff like that..

Well, they'll start with getting a court order from your parents to lock you into a hospital bed feed you with an IV.

Your parents, if they fear for your health, will allow it, and then you'll end up in a hospital against your will with an IV sticking out, feeding you medication to help with your issue as well as to keep you alive.

Alternatively, you could let them weigh you, and help figure out if you have a serious illness that needs to be addressed.

I really hope you do the right thing, your parents, friends, and personally, I'd be crushed if you hurt yourself.

The Nurse is doing her JOB, which will benefit...her ? No, YOU - let her carry out here responsibilities and you live up to yours (ensuring you remain healthy) - the scale has never jumped up and attacked anyone that I've heard of - if you're in denial, please snap out of it...Good luck !!

The only way that you can end up in a hospital is if you ar endangering your self or some one else...then yeah it is not legal and they get the court order,,however... if you are eatting and not trying to starve your self there is nothing that they can do...you may just be really skinny..I am not to sure though please tll me is you are not eatting or if it is just that they think you are not..also to get them off your case YOU SHOULD CONSIDER EATTING MORE IN FRONT OF THEM.. hey might help...

oh my gosh! this is excatly like me. friends can be so hurtful sometimes. I hate that they told. I let the school nurse weigh me the first time and i was much heavier than now. And she said if i've lost anymore she's gona contact my parents and a doctor. I deny having an e.d. when she asks though, she is like 'well we'll just investigate that deary' the cow! does she know you have one and have you accepted that?
