Eating Disorders- Body Dysmorphic Disorder/Bulimia

Message 2 of 2 Previous



Unfortunately many people with eating disorders do not listen to their friends, at least at first. What she needs is to see a professional. There are many places that have community outreach programs to help those with eating disorders, maybe you could go with her. Bulimia is very serious. But if your friend has a body image problem then her health will come after her concern over her physical appearance. Reassure her, give her genuine compliments on her positive attributes both physical and personal. Help her understand that continuing to make herself throw-up is not only bad for her body inside, but it can also lead to tooth-loss and hair-loss. She most likely wouldn't like that!
