Eating disorders must be treated as serious medical conditions and handled by...more

People who are mentally ill also seem to be chronically afraid of hospitals, or at least seem to want to avoid medical attention in a hospital setting. Looking at it from the perspective of someone who is confused or otherwise mentally unstable, the sterile and instrument-laden halls of a hospital are indeed terrifying, and can even be considered "creepy" by a person who is not suffering from a mental condition. Mentally ill people do not want to come to a hospital, and they do not want to seek treatment, making it difficult to get that treatment to them.
