A member asked:
What do you do when you've tried to get anorexia/self harm treatment but nobody will help you?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Be persistent: You need to be persistent in seeking help, particularly if you have been engaging in self destructive behaviors. Your local mental health agencies can refer you to free or low cost treatment if you do not have health care coverage. If you are in danger, please go to an emergency room and request a psychiatric consultation for urgent care needs.
