I'm 15! I can't miss school I mean how long do they keep you in those clinics? I'm in highschool so I can't miss.

Its kinda sucky really, your supposed to be focusing on getting better not school work. isobel Posted at 6:31 pm on Dec. 10, 2008 If you really need help, school should be the last thing on your mind. DopeSickGirl Posted at 6:26 pm on Dec. 10, 2008 i have to go to rehab tomm. they keep you for atleast 30 days. try and get out of it. Jman19 Posted at 6:26 pm on Dec. 10, 2008 I was in the hospital for nearly five months. That was a bit different though, but yeah, as long as it takes for you to get you back to normal or at least to some sort of routine. CheyBear Posted at 6:25 pm on Dec. 10, 2008 If you have an eating disorder, you need help and it would be in your best interest. I'm assuming they keep you in until you reach a goal weight and seem to be generally recovering. At inpatient hospitals, they have school classes there so you wouldn't really be missing any work. Seani Posted at 6:25 pm on Dec. 10, 2008 As long as it takes for you to get back to normal. blufindr Posted at 6:25 pm on Dec. 10, 2008 Uh, yea, you can. They have tutors and teachers there. Luvme4eva Posted at 6:24 pm on Dec. 10, 2008 School's important but shouldn't you be worried about getting better? MystiqueBeauty16 Posted at 6:24 pm on Dec. 10, 2008 I just got out of the psych ward in the hospital for five days because my Mom thought I suffered from depression. It was pure hell. But if you really have an eating disorder, you do need help. SCGirl09 Posted at 6:24 pm on Dec. 10, 2008 eat. All 10 previous replies displayed.
