Miss_Lily answered Friday March 25 2005, 2:38 pm: Wrong. Your friend is <b>still</b> in trouble until she admits that she has a problem and is willing to get help. Your parents, even though they may be concerned, can't make this girl get help. It is ultimately up to her parents to check her into a place that will help her with her problem. Mental disorders play a big part in any disorder, and your friend will need psycological help to get through this. She can't do this alone, and you can't help her either. It is better for you to get your friend help, then for your friend to suffer from long term health problems, or possibly even death. It is a shame that her parents can't take a more active role in her life and help her before it is too late. Try talking to a counselor at your school, because neither of her parents are willing to step up 100% to the plate. [ Miss_Lily's advice column | Ask Miss_Lily A Question ]
mrs_radcliffe answered Friday March 25 2005, 6:53 am: Right, its good for you to tell someone because first of all your helping you and second is because your giving her the help she needs to over come bulimia, with a little support she should get over it and be back to normal in no time.

lostinside answered Thursday March 24 2005, 7:47 pm: Good job for trying to tell someone. It's the right thing to do, and real friends would do something like that. I would tell a teacher or your guidance counselor at school, I think they'd help her out. Goodluck.
xOtWiXi answered Thursday March 24 2005, 6:36 pm: tell someone at school.. they will have to go thru the parents then social services, but it will probably help ♥ [ xOtWiXi's advice column | Ask xOtWiXi A Question ]
De1NdOnLii answered Thursday March 24 2005, 5:12 pm: Your friend might not appreciate it now but what you did for her DID save her life. She's probably just upset because now her parents know and she didn't want them to. Once she gets over the fact that you "told on her" and "betrayed her trust" (which you didn't) she'll really appreciate what you did. You saved someones life for heaven's sake!!!!!!! don't worry if she's still mad after a while....it'll probably take her a while to get over it if she's really mad. just keep being a good friend to her and don't act any different and things will get better i promise!!!

xcuriousx0 answered Thursday March 24 2005, 5:10 pm: i totally agree...you did it because you care. Your being A better friend telling someone than you would be to just let her hurt herself [ xcuriousx0's advice column | Ask xcuriousx0 A Question ]
