My son had to leave university because of anorexia. His gp immediately recommended him for treatment to April House. After the initial assessment where it was agreed he was in urgent need of treatment he has been kept waiting with only very sporadic contact to tell him he has to wait another few weeks, then another. Meantime his behaviour is becoming entrenched, his quality of life has sunk to barely existing, he looks like a skeleton, his health is very poor, his future is slipping away. He could have been helped if only he had been seen earlier. Why is this taking so long?
