want to help bulemic friend
Posted: 12-29-07 13:45pm

I'm going crazy inside my head. I don't have an eating disorder myself. But my best friend is bulimic. She doesn't want help. I know I can't really help her, even though she is getting help soon in a few days on the 1st of jan.
I don't know what to do.
I don't know what I'm doing right or wrong anymore. Confused
She's worried about me now, because I'm getting sad myself.
And what have I got to be sad about??? Confused
I love her to pieces, I can't imagine me without her. I don't know how to help her.
help? Shocked

and she understood, but not so much...just never bother her about what she eats or her weight but silently moniter her to make sure she isn't throwing up, [believe me, she could be doing so in other places than the bathroom] tell her how glad you are she's doing better, [if she is] and don't get too anooyed if she talks about food and weight and such an alarming amount, friends are you at-home therapists and you just have to get things out...just support her, but don't step in unless you're sure she's left the road to recovery.
