that seems sickening to me. i can't believe that in the great US of A they would turn away a 21 year old who needs help!! its disgusting!!!
i hope someone hear will find an answer for you.
good luck and hang in there.

Instead of running ragged trying to find a treatment center that will accept your insurance, why don't you turn it around and rattle the insurance company about which treatment options are available according to your plan? Just a thought. XO

Does your insurance only work in California??
I recommand checking out Mirasol in AZ. It's a really nice place and they take a lot of different insurances. You can look into it at www.mirasol.net or call them. I have the number it's #1-888-520-1700 or 520-5463200 a lady named Jeannie helped me a long time ago. You can tell her Kathy recommended you call, she'll remember me. She maybe able to help you too, I hope so.
Let me know what happens. Eating disorders take lives, recovery is so important!!!
wishing you well, khodem-kathy

Sorry, if anyone feels like I am intruding.. but what is purging?

There is a great place, but they are christian based and require daily bible study, treatment is free if you get accepted. If you are intrested message me.

I'm pretty much going through the same problem you are. I applied for an ED scholarship through The Freed Foundation. The website is www.freedfoundation.org. After you apply, it will probably take awhile until you hear back. I applied 3 months ago, and I am still waiting to hear back.
