Answer #1

the only thing if you tell her that you are worried she might freak out and go defensive on you and I dont think you want that I would approach her with caution… because I would kinda go defensive too if someone did that too me. because I have problems too.. but my advice is go in with caution… but I would talk to her find the right time and place…

Answer #2

Tell her what you told us! Tell her how horrible you would feel if she died… and she will if she doesn’t get help and she keeps this up. Tell her she has to get some help or she will die, and you would be so upset if that happened, tell her all of your feelings and see what she says about it.

Answer #3

Yes.. exactly talk to her first about how you feel about it all. After a while maybe try and persuade her to get help. At you school you might have mentors.. or there might an American version of childline.. =S Sorry I don’t know lol. But.. Good luck =]

WELL HONEY LISTEN YOU NEED TO TELL HER LIKE IT IS. SHE IS DAMAING HER STOMACH AND HER THROAT BECAUSE IF YOU DO THAT SO MUCH YOU CAN GET THROAT CANCER BECAUSE YOU HAVE SO MUCH ACID IN YOUR STOMACH AND PRETTY SOON IF SHE KEEP DOING THAT THEN SHE WONT HAVE TO DO THAT MUCH LONGER BECAUSE HER BODY WILL GET USED TO THAT AND IT WILL AHPPEN EVERYTIME THAT SHE EATS SOMETHING. BUT I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY SHE IS MAKING HER SELF THROW UP IF SHE IS ALREADY SKINNY THATS NOT RIGHT. PUT YOUR FOOT DOWN AND TELL HER LIKE IT IS AND TELL HER YOU ARE A GOOD FRIEND BUT IF SHE DONT HELP HER SELF THAT YOU ARE GOING TO TELL HER PARENTS BECAUSE IF YOU DONT SHE WILL END UP DEAD AND WE NONE WANT THAT TO HAPPEN… IF YOU NEED SOMEONE TO TALK WITH EAMIL ME ANY I WOULD BE GLAD TO TALK WITH YOU ANYTIME…

Answer #7

um why did she vomit?

Answer #8

First things first, be calm when you talk to her, and tell her the physiological dangers to unhealthy eating habits. Maybe the two of you could google bulemia or anorexia and read some of the posted info in reputable websites. They can get into mre details as to the organ failure and etc… Discuss your concerns with a school counselor, or medical professional if possible. Issues with anorexia and bulemia are not about weight it is about self image. Let her know that you love her and will always support her and that you want her to continue on in this incredible life. Love her.

Answer #9

Try putting your self in their shoes. If you were determind that you looked bad how would you like to be helped?Also you must remember this has more to do with her head than her head than her actual weight. It can be about controll and feeling that the body is the only thing that she can controll in her life.If my friend had an E.D. I’d start by trying to make her life as happy as possible, also I’d try and get her help maybe try a teacher or doctor.Also getting her to realise the problem she has and just listenning to her is helpfull.At the end of the day it’s up to the individual to get her self out so you need to show her this and make sure she knows all the good things she has in her life and what she could do with her life when she gets a bit of help.

Answer #10

My lil sis used 2 be anorexic. she only confided in me. you have to tell her why its so wrong. tell her you will be wiv her all the way. make sure she knows that you can help her out of it. eating disorders like anorexia and bulimia are a state of mind too.. help her my getting her out of the spiral. look it up on the net and talk to your parents about it.
