This episode is a continuation of my conversation with Stephanie. Stephanie’s daughter struggles with ARFID (avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder), anxiety, and obsessive compulsive disorder.
In this episode, Stephanie shares about her daughter’s six-month residential stay at the Eating Recovery Center in Dallas (https://www.eatingrecoverycenter.com/recovery-centers/dallas) followed by two months of partial hospitalization treatment there. Stephanie discusses how their family managed this time, and how her daughter missed her entire junior year of high school. Upon returning home, Stephanie talks about how her daughter was able to complete two years of high school in one year and graduate on time. While the journey hasn’t been perfect and her daughter still struggles, her daughter is currently in her sophomore year of college and living on campus. Stephanie encourages parents to find community when they have a child with mental illness, and how important letting go was for her to find peace.
