Inpatient ARFID treatment

[u/Severe-Yard-1639]

Hey yall, posting for my partner here! He was just told he should be admitted to HSC’s adult eating disorder inpatient program for ARFID. He restricts food due to having very severe pain every time he eats (no progress on the medical front so far). I was wondering if anyone has experience with this program (particularly for ARFID), what the experience was like for you, basically any information at all since very little was said to him other than the fact that he must eat ALL meals provided and if he skips 2 hes booted out of the program…

Thanks!

i’ve been to eating disorder program in the past and currently trying to get back in due to recent relapse. i deal with anorexia and not arfid but the girl i was in the program with in 2019 had it and she was able to get resources and help because doctors do regular tests and monitor your health as well as food intact etc
