My friend has an eating disorder..?

she's 6ft tall %26amp; only 7stone in weight. She has a lot of problems with her heart, circulation, etc. she also has problems with her bones, its horrible to see her wasting away. Her hair %26amp; skin are in a disgusting condition as well, she used to be so beautiful %26amp; now that she's been snapped up by some modelling agency, they're telling her to lose more weight.


Anytime I try to talk to her about it, she gets defensive %26amp; says im jealous because I'm a fat *****.


How the hell am I supposed to stop her from killing herself?

as a person with an eating disorder i can tell you what you can do is be there for her. what she is going threw is not easy. encourge her to get help, find help out there for her. consult her parents, get drs and therapists involved. if it gets bad enough there are other things that can be done, like her being held against her will in a hospital. most importantly be there to support her threw this, be there so she can talk to you. it it a very isolating disease. i know it is hard i have many friends that have eating disorders and i dont like seeing them go threw this as well.
Reply:tell her parents. tell a couseler. tell ANYBODY





i'm 16yrs old and i've been bulimic for 2 yrs. its at its worst all month i've been throwing up twice a day or more. i told my best friend this a few months ago and she told me that if i didnt stop throwing up she'd tell on me. well, obviously, i just quit telling her the truth. but i know if that my parents were filled in with whats going on with me i'd get healthy again. i'd go to a hospital, to therapy, and get help. i would never admit this to a person face-to-face, but threw a screen its much easier - that is what you need to do as a friend - TELL SOMEBODY. its the only thing you can really do that will garentee her getting better....i would know
