Asperger's and anorexia

does anyone have any background in young adults with Asperger's and anorexia? My D is anorexic and is under threat of being sectioned to an inpatient facility over 100 miles away. She has selective mutism, social anxieties that are off the scale and never goes out without my or family support...I don't believe that she would cope, she would completely shut down...she needs help but not like this, any ideas if there is anyone I can turn to for help? Thank you

  • Hi - what an awful situation.  Apart from getting a family law solicitor you cd perhaps ring the nas helpline or the helpline of another relevant charity.  I'm sorry I can't be of any real help.  Presume it's a section under the mental health act so you cd check out that Act + see who else has been in that position + what they did.  Knowledge is power.
