throwing up or diarreah


Question Posted Saturday March 13 2010, 8:34 pm

my best friend has been looking weaker and more pale lately. there was a week i spent with her in the ozarks with her parents and everytime she would eat she would go to the batroom like mintues later and she would put the water on really high and she would like come out twenty mins later and when i asked her what she was doing she would say. "oh. ive been having diarriah lately!" so i just always left it at that. i talked to her mom once and she said she has been noticing it too and she talked to her about it but maggie just refused it and said thats not true. i don't know what to do anymore. i can't talk to maggie becuase she gets really offended when people say "you look anerixic" if it's not true that she is throwing up everytime she eats imagine how mad she would be at me!

signed,
confused and scared

uhmm well.
what i would think is bulemia.
ask her if shes bulemic and if she gets pissed
then theres a high chancethat she is
if you tell someone like an authority figure
she'll be like.. SUPER pissed at you
but, honestly if you care about her..just to be on the safe side
tell someone.. i mean this is dangerous
she could die

You proble want to just ask her if she can tell you and let her know that you care about her and her health and ask her to feel free to talk to you about it.
Not to be all in her biss but if she is anerixic then that can be dangerous so just realy try tallking to her and if you realy can't try to send the message that she looks find you know and hope I helped out alittle.
GOOD LUCK love me........C.L.N.<3

Neither or us are psychic but it doesn't take a crystal ball for both of us to know something is really wrong with this girl. If it was the runs and vomiting over the course of a weekend it's one thing but if you're seeing this consistently... Who's fooling anyone?

She's defensive because she either has a problem (all evidence suggests) or had a one time issue which judging by what everyone sees isn't the case.

What do you do? You have to tell the truth sometimes even if the situation is icky and can cost you a friend. If she's in trouble you might just save her life.

I would talk to your teacher anonymously and tell her that you think your friend is in a high-risk situation and has been doing x, y, z lately that has her friends and other adults concerned but her parents oblivious or in denial etc. etc.

The teacher will then meet with administrators and deal with your friend and her parents. They won't necessarily know you said a thing because they always go into such talks with multiple teachers etc. who will say they as a whole think this is true. Then it's up for the parents to show they're having it looked into.

She may be upset somebody got the courage to do something but in the end when she gets well she'll know it was out of deep concern. In life there's some icky secrets kids should NEVER keep from adults about the harm of themselves and others. This is just another category under that list as is any self-harm issue.
