Yes please call.: Some psychiatrists have slots for emergencies or can put you on a cancellation list. However, you will need to have some degree of commitment for tx to help. I hope that your plan includes some form of talking therapy.

See him early: An eating disorders crisis is certainly something to call your psychiatrist or psychologist about. Don't suffer alone. Reach out for help. Best wishes.
