After that the NG tube became a sick addiction. It was horrible, a vile sensation, I even got a nose bleed from it once, but the choice wasn't mine, there was nothing I could do, they had all control so it wasn't my decision to consume the calories. For some reason that made me more calm. Also that fact I had no solid food for 4 days straight made me feel very proud of myself.

One day a doctor came in to tell me that if I didn't stop getting the NG tube, they'd have to send me to a specialised eating disorder unit, of course I didn't want that, I watched watched a YouTube video about one of them once, looked like hell. So for the rest of my stay I had the weird milky drink things and on my last day I had lunch because they said I'll  have to get used to eating food eventually as I couldn't have a milk drink at lunch at school.

Hah. Like I'd  even eat while I'm at school.

After I was out of hospital for the second time, obviously my weight went up a huge amount. I didn't feel as bad as I thought I would though because every time I put on weight during my hospital stay, I know I'd  lose it straight away when I got home, just a minor set back.
