My friend is not eating at all because she thinks she is fat but she is not at all!! I have no clue how to make her start eating again but her parents are going through a divorce so that could have somthing to do with it. Please suggest idea on how to help her.:confused:

Tell an adult whether it be a teacher, counselor, or even her parents. I think it would have been easier for me to start eating again if someone had found out earlier. Your friend will probably be really mad at you at first, but hopefully she'll forgive you once she realizes what would have happened if you didn't tell anyone.

some people may think this is a eating disorder but if she is going through hard time it may be a way for her to deal with it but it may one of two things 1. a symptom of grief or depression 2. an eating disorder without talking to her i cant tell

btw, i know this because i wont to be a psychiatrist one day so i study this stuff a lot
