Hi Dinah,
My T has told me more than once that bingeing on food (and in my case purging) is self injury. I don't understand why your T freaks out over one form of self harm, but not bingeing on food until you're physically ill. I can see why you're frustrated.
I'm sorry your T isn't getting that returning as much as you can and calling it a mental health day is not the answer to your problem. I would think that he would want to talk about why your spending spree helped and nothing else did, but then again I'm not a T. Maybe hand him the bills and say, here, you pay for my mental health day. That might get his attention.
