umm well this is kind of odd, but I need help... to help someone else.

this morning before class my friend B (who's a year older than me) came up to me and said that she wasn't feeling good. she said that she had been sick last night. I started to say something about the cold thats going around here and then she told me that she made herself sick... she's approximately 90 pounds, but she doesn't look extremely skinny because shes short. she thinks she fat... I don't know how long shes been doing this but she said she threw up 5 times last night. it sounds like bulimia to me... I want to help her, anyone have any suggestions?

thanks

you should tell your friend there is nothing wrong with her. if she continues tell her to see a nutritionist or pyhcologist.

You should try and reinforce the fact that she is not fat, although her mind may see her as it. Try and talk to her and get her to see either a counsellor or a GP about the problem, as it will most likely keep getting worse and worse. Ask her how long she has been doing it because that will give you a better understanding of the dificulty that it will be for her to stop. And also just talk to her, let her tell you about her problems if she feels comfortable with it.
Good luck!

Hope i have helped :)
