Outpatient Treatment
I was diagnosed with BED in 2019, and have not received treatment (was getting other mental health treatment in the meantime). I just signed up for an outpatient program that's completely online. It's three days a week, plus a separate therapy appointment, and separate dietician appointment. This will be on top of seeing my therapist once a week, my nurse psychiatrist twice a month, and starting ketamine treatment.
When I had my clinical intake program meeting today, they informed me that I must eat on camera every session. I was already nervous about doing this program because I've never done anything like this before, and now I feel like I'm going to be sick. I hate eating in front of others. I know I need to get out of my comfort zone, but I'm not sure how to get past this besides maybe just looking down and not at the camera when I'm eating? Any suggestions? Thank you!
