Introduce medical intervention sooner for those suffering with Anorexia Nervosa

Closed 30 signatures

What the petition asks

Medical intervention should begin sooner to prevent a patients rapid deterioration of health. Counselling as a first form of treatment is not at all useful on its own if the patient is suffering malnourishment. Their brain lacks ability to concentrate and withhold useful advice and information.

Medical and counselling services should work hand in hand to ensure fast diagnosis and early intervention. Medical help to prevent extreme rapid deterioration of an individual health is vital. Much to the individuals refusal and disapproval this should be pressed or encouraged to help the recovery process begin as soon as possible. Putting off recovery will only prolong the suffering and tormenting thoughts, allowing them to become the only way in life like a 'voice' that must be abided by.
