Hey everyone,

Ok, my best friend is bullimic and i dont know what to do. She confessed to me a couple weeks ago and made me swear not to tell anyone. I dont want to break my promise to her but I'm scared about what might happen to her. Whenever I try to get her help she refuses it and she never talks to me about her problem. I'm really scared and I'm not sure how to handle this....any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi Marie,


I think it is great that you want to help your friend. The best thing she could do is therapy, but it sounds like she is not ready yet. I know this is scary for you, but the only thing you can really do to help is to continue to be her friend. Be there to listen, don't try to make her eat, etc. You can go to www.somethingfishy.org and read more about EDs in general and also how you can be

Love & hugs, Kristina
