I found out yesterday that my best friend suffers from anorexia. She also suffers from depression and anxiety (which I knew about)
I love her to bits, and I want to be there and support her as much as I possibly can. I know I can't make things better for her, but is there anything I can do apart from being there for her that may help her?
Its just so fucking messed up how someone should have to deal with all this shit

I don't think you can do anything but be there for her. It's a mental thing so the person has to get over and you being there is the only thing I can think of. If she goes to the doctors about all the above you could go with her if she's happy with it.

She sees a psychologist about it, and has been to the hospital (I think about the anorexia) but she hates it

See If you can go with her, that way you might get a better idea of how to help
