helping friend with bulemia Posted: 03-15-08 18:28pm
I have a friend 'Emily' who has recently
told me that she's bulimic. She tells me
she sets a target for her waist size and
once she gets to that she sets a new
smaller one. It's like she's never good
enough. Right now she's less that a 25
waist with a BMI of 17.
Her grandmother 'Mary' is my neighbor
(it's how I know Emily) and I'm wondering
how and even if I should tell Mary,
because I don't know how to get a hold of
her parents and I don't think I can talk
her into stopping.
Emily is a nice girl and I don't want
anything bad happening to her. I need help
here.
