Personally, if it came down to those three choices, I would go through with the treatment recommendation and after you show the doctor that you are eating healthily, maybe he/she will begin to trust you more?
I hate that you're going through this and I will definitely keep you in my thoughts!  |
I definitely will never see her again. Honestly I fear for her mental safety if I do
(bad jokes...). I've made it known through my therapist what happened, and I trust her to carry that through if I go into treatment. Sadly, I think that's the decision I will make to. I'm not happy about any of them, but hopefully it will work out.
Oh, and the other thing I forgot to mention. I really can't afford to do blood draws. I've been treated for PTSD because of childhood incidents with needles. And, I have a tumor sort of in my brain which requires blood tests at least once a year, and throughout the duration of my life. My veins are very hard to access and I can't just go scar them up for her because it would make her feel better
I need those for MRIs and stuff
Thank you though, I feel a little better about the treatment option. I mean, it's obviously worked for hundreds of other people... right?
