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

    It sounds as though her care is joined up properly :-)

    The care team won't be recommending this lightly, they will be aware of the potential impact and risks of both courses of action. Are they worried that the progress that she is making now isn't fast enough?

    What does your daughter have to say about this? Presumably she is anxious and frightened about anything different to what she knows?
