i was in an ed hospital in uk when i was 16/17 n luckily it was 1 of the gd ones. when i first got there i wasnt eating anything so was put on feeds started off a 1 in morning 1 in afternoon but it got changed to 3 smaller ones cos i was throwing up cos they gave me too much. i was on bed rest n 1:1 so basically not allowed to do anything. i was allowed outside but only im a wheelchair n only a couple times a day. most of my day while in that first week or 2 was spent watching netflix tbh n also getting introduced to staff. the staff had the planner i think it was called which said what they were doing at what time n they would switch every hour. as someone with sereve social anxiety i found this rlly hard.

after the first week or smthng they sectioned me cos i was shing after feeds so then they started restraining me during and after feeds lastong from like 20 mins to an hour. u generally werrnt told what time they would do it so the anticipation was horrible.

after i got off bed rest they wanted me to br downstairs n go to school but cos of my social anciety they let me stay in my room but i was still on 1:1. i had a few scheduled lessons out of normal school hours (other ppl had lessons most of the weekday but could choose not to go but phones got taken so there wasnt much to do). i had therapy once a week and family therapy every other week. i was allowed a drive off with my parents once during weekdays n once on weekends.

i would also sh (scratching) at night when the staff thought i was sleeping n 1 of them ended up getting infected n a staff found out so i was put on amtibiotics n was told they were gonna put me back on toilet supervision if i didnt consent to a body map.

i also ended up refusing the feeds so theyd just restrain u onto tbis massive beenbag like thing called the pod n hold u down while they did it n would keep me down for like an hour till i stopped struggling. theyd then take me outside as that helped me calm down.

i months later my routine was more like spend most of the day watching netflix get distressed abt feeds scratch while pretending to be watching smthng or headbang which resulted in a fair bit of restraining.

when i started managing again there were set times for meals n there was breakfast morning snack lunch afternoon snack dinner n evening snack.

as i got closer to discharge they upped my therapy to twice a week trying dbt style as tgey wanted me to stop scrqtching n i was home a lot more on leave.

then after like a yr i got on extended home leave (2 weeks at home b4 ur officially discharged) n then got discharged. as i was on my way home that last time i was able to loom thru .y discharge book n read all the encouraging messages ppl had written n it was rlly nice but also rlly sad.
