Yes I had access to the room if I needed it. I wanted her to make the first move in either allowing me to come on or for her to come out. She doesn't appear to of have anywhere which was her own, and I really want her to believe her room is hers. She wouldn't come out for dinner so I had to enter with a sandwitch and some juice. She is so upset that she told me. When I went in her room she was still in tears, I sat with her while she cried herself to sleep.
She begged me not to tell anyone, which was impossible and I explained to her that her social worker needs to know, that she will want to help make things better again so the she (fd) can be happy. I do think that keeping it a "secret" was important, but they way she describes it things - it was a punishment.
I've told her that we don't think any less of her, that nothing was her fault and that she hasn't got to keep any secrets etc etc. She wont even make eye contact.
With the eating disorder I am really worried this will set her back futher. Since coming out of hospital she has eaten, not much but some food is better then no food.
I understand she is upset right now and such, but we cannot afford to let her skip any meal. Shes shaking, crying and is in such a state and the sad fact is tomorrow is going to be more harsh.
