I know you may not be keen on the idea but her being admitted for specialist care would be the best thing.

I hate to appear as being cruel or insensitive but believe me I'm not. She has a mental health issue that the family cannot cope with but will be essential to her recovery once she has undergone the specialist treatment she obviously needs.
Stop burying your head in the sand she needs help!

I understand totally what you are saying.

She is seeing a professional, she is the one who will decide if she is taken in to residential care.

My sister said if she had been at college, they would remove her from it.

She has been caught out cheating/hiding food.

But I guess the experts see if the person can overcome it with help from family, before taking family out of the equation.
