Eating disorder or what ?
I think that my really good friend Abbie has an eating disorder. Here are some of the things I see her doing that are signs of bulimic :
-barely eating anything'
-always going to the bathroom after eating something little
-she wears BIG baggy clothes
-she is dizzy alot
Im pretty sure that she needs help. Ive tried talking to her about it and she says she doesnt have an eating disorder and that she doesnt need help. Im really concerned about her, Ive tried telling her that too but she just gets mad and wont talk to me till I apoligize,
Please help me really fast.
Im accepting any and all advice !!!!
Thank you

This doesn't sound like bulimia.
It sounds like anorexia
Bulimic people like to eat, and eat alot
They like sweets and fill up on junk (most of the timee)
Then they throw it up!
Anorexic people don't each much, and sometimes they eat enough so that they don't completely starve
Have you noticed anything about long-sleeved clothes?
She may be cutting, explaining the baggy clothing
And when you cut, you get very stressed out, and becoming that stressed, makes some people not eat muchh
And also tell someone older that you trust.
She may need help for cutting or an eating disorder...or something completely different
And she will hate you, but realize when she gets better that you were the best friend ever!
Hope I helped, and sorry it was longg <3

I think I would talk to her mom.
I would tell her the things you
have noticed and see if she has
been seeing the same things you
are. Does she have a sister? You
could ask her too.
She will get mad at you. Be ready
for that. Better mad and still
alive to be your friend another day.
Good luck, its a tough decision you
have to make. It would be the right
thing to do though. :)

actually, most people with bulimia LOVE food. they binge and purge. a bulimic person will sit down and eat a whole box of donuts and then throw it up.
anorexic people barely eat anything.
but she could be bulimic, but from what i hear it sounds like she is anorexic. or she might be both.
the best thing to do is tell a trusted adult.
try talking to your school counselor and tell her you are worried about your friend.
hope i helped
