Adolescent Mental Health Inpatient Units

Hi.  I wondered if anyone has any experience of any of these.  My daughter (17) was in one for several months last year and, although she made progress and was not unhappy there, they were very ignorant regarding ASDs.  It now looks as if she may need to be admitted again and I am wondering if there are any which are particularly good with people on the spectrum.

  • No, it's no problem.  She has severe anxiety which led to conversion disorder.  When she was admitted she couldn't move at all.  Although the conversion side of things is much better than it was, her eating has got a lot worse (she was already having some issues).  She has been eating less and less and is now eating no solid food and existing only on milk.
