Be supportive.

Imagine that everyone was judging what you ate all day every day - you wouldn't like it. It's very hard for them to get better when everyone is trying to push them to eat more and more so quickly. There's a really good article in the January or February issue of Glamour that talks about annorexia and how non-annorexics can understand it.

You are not going to like this answer, but you have to tell her that you can't be friends with her or talk to her anymore UNLESS she follows all the instructions from her parents and doctors with regards to her illness.

Most adults would not have the courage to do that, but its the only way to help her.

Good luck.

is her mother aware how bab this is? if she is not aware you need to tell her. she needs profesional help. anorexia and other eating disorders can result in Death. if she does over come it she could still have health problems. your organs get very damaged and can't always recover completley. if you can't talk to her mother maybe you could talk to a teacher or your own parents but this is a serious illness and she needs professonal help.

u need to sit and explain this to her..


try being a bad person for sometime...

tell her if u dont eat u wont be a good friend to her..
she can start eating healthier food than eating more food or less food.


she can eat more fruits..
things low on calories..
etc...,
