i'm so sorry you are feeling this badly. but i'm glad you are still talking. that is an excellent sign. i'm also glad you came clean with your T. it's important. SI should be talked about not ignored.
i am glad that you are taking in at least some calories. go for the high protein items peanut butter, etc. maybe some shakes that have vitamins and stuff in them.i think i would keep you on very close watch.
do a couple of things for us. talk to your T about your plan. i think sometimes talking aobut this things can often reveal much more than just the plan itself. sometimes more feeling about what is trapped inside that is causing so much pain.and if your T SHOULD recommend hospitalization, either now or in the future. well, we've all had our own experiences with it but i'd say in my experience, it's been mostly good. (if you volunteer yourself....ALWAYS volunteer yourself!-which means if they ask you if you will go, say yes. if you don't and they think you are a threat you may end up in some other facility, THAT happened to me twice and That facility was a NIGHTMARE!-i would choose hospital over that ANY day.) anyway.
mostly hospitals will only keep you 2-3 days. switch some meds around, make sure you are getting counseling upon release and send you on your way.
so don't worry too much.
hugs and cares
