Hello, sorry to hear about your daughter. You sound like a loving and caring parent, and I hope she gets well soon. We have Hello Fresh in Denmark which is meal boxes, and also Nemlig.dk for direct groceries. And there's aastiderne.com which is boxes of fruits and vegetables.

Also you should know that if your daughter is ever in an avute mental health crisis there's the option of "psykiatisk skadestue" or "psychiatric ER".

You call in to the psychiatric hospital in her area (and you can call in on behalf of others or have her host family do it), and she'll get an acute appointment for assesment.

You will get an appointment with qualified doctors in the same day, even within a couple of hours. If you are very, very concerned about someone, it's even possible to call the police to get them do a mental health check and have them escort the patient to the ER (the police in Denmak are more gentle, but it's still a rough/shocking experience for the patient, so it's better saved for life and death concerns, and better if you can convince them to go yourself.)

When you are at the ER you'll talk through your feelings with the doctors, and what is going on, and they'll triage you for either outpatient or inpatient treatments, of varying length and intensity. They really assess the individual needs of the patient, and listen to what the patient would like/feel like would help them the most. No mandatory holds or strict boxes to fit in.

Remember, public health treatment in Denmark is free, even for visitors, so please don't hesitate out of monetary concern if your daughter needs help. I've been through the system myself.

A private psychologists can be expensive though, it is is possible to get some compensated sessions through contacting your primary care physician and disclosing that you are having mental health issues.

It can be a bit difficult to get through though, and there can be a long wait at a good psychologist, you have to do your own research, and contact them yourself.

That's why I recommend the psych ER for crisis as you get in front of a psychiatrist SO FAST, even though it can be daunting for someone to admit to themselves that they are even having a crisis. The moment you do, and let other people take care of you is such a relief though, and can even help in and of itself!

Both inpatient and outpatient and even getting to the ER with police escort, and I've been treated very well throughout. I definitely wouldn't have recovered and been here today, feeling good, and being stable with my mental health for several years now if it wasn't for these services, so that just why I want to let you know, in the worst case scenario.

All the best to you and your family, wishes for recovery and a big hug!
