My daughter is away from home now for a few months already in a residential place getting treated for anorexia. I want to send her something that I can order on Amazon so it will get to her in 2 days before the last days of yomtov. Either an inspirational book or jewelry, not too expensive or anything else anyone can think of. Just not food
Thank you

You can get her a diary and pen set
Art supplies if she's into that
A wearable blanket /swaddlebee

Hugs. I’ve had a sibling in residential treatment and it’s such a mix of feelings.
When my friend was in residential I ordered her wool socks (warmest things you can imagine that actually make your feet warm, it’s unbelievable) snd she still talks fondly of that care package!
I know it’s not glamorous but anorexics are constantly cold so it might be a nice gift (maybe buy something “pretty” too with the socks.
So many hugs! May this center be the yeshua for her!

Unless she's desperate for reading material, I'd be very careful about inspirational books and would only get a book with the recommendation of someone at the residence. You're clearly a wonderful mother and I daven that whatever you send, she enjoys and constantly reminds her of your love. We're all rooting for her and your whole family!

I would recommend either a sweater or slippers in her favorite color or something of that genre. Maybe gel pens or colorful art supplies if that is her thing.
I would recommend against anything with the words of encouragement or a journal, as that might feel judgemental or like pressure to her. Of course I don’t know her and it might be perfect for her, but many have perceive that as you should be thinking certain things or feeling a certain way or getting better faster or having and articulating more thoughts about it and it is not always beneficial to the recipient.

I would check with the place before sending art supplies, I learned the hard way that many places confiscate sharp objects, including the pencils I sent along with an adult coloring book!

Wow Amen and thank you everyone! So many good ideas! She already has too many blankets and art supplies, I'll probably get jewelry or slippers.
Really appreciate all of your suggestions and brachos!
Thank you!
