Hi Rob,

Although I know this must be a very difficult time for you, I am really pleased to hear how you are gathering information and seeking solutions for your W's ED. I think your W is really lucky to have you on her side, and I am confident that you are on the right track. I also wanted to mention that when my foster D had an ED when she was 15, they put her on Prozac for 6 months. I normally am opposed to all drup interventions and am very mistrusting of most medical approaches, but this was recommended in conjunction with the counseling/therapy, nutritional counseling, etc. and the combination of all the interventions did turn her around.

It is extremely fortunate that your W is opening up to you. This is a VERY good sign, and indicates to me that you are doing something very right. Keep it up. And meanwhile, make sure to take care of yourself in extra ways to keep yourself healthy and centered (and also to provide healthy role modeling). Keep up your positive attitude - you are a source of inspiration I think it is possible that dealing with the ED and still loving her will be a catalyst for renewed trust and intimacy.
