does anyone have a brother or sister, or any other close relatives that has or had an eating disorder?
my sister has bulimia, and she is like my best friend. she wont go into treatment or to therapy, and im so scared that one day she wont wake up. it scares me so much. i hate watching her kill herself, but i feel like there is nothing i can do.
Not a sibling, but my best friend's Dad constantly tells her that she's fat, even though the girl weighs max 130 lbs. So she battles with anorexia and bulemia. She'll go on week long fasts where all she consumes is juice, or she'll eat and huge meal and then purge in the bathroom 10 minutes later. She's been seeing a psychiatrist since she's 14, and nothing seems to help.

to be honest- im bulimic- and idk. its her way of relieving herself from anxiety and stress. shell wake up. just leave her alone. but make sure she knows you care about her. we wont listen to anyone. its a way of having control. we might be dying to be thin, but at least we will be.
I've been dealing with anorexia for about three years. It runs in my family. I just recently discovered throwing up food, but use it as a last resort. Its one of those diseases you have for life, it never goes away and once you get it, theres no turning back. I get fall in and out of uber anorexic periods, and i need to loose 10 lbs. lol.
As for your sister, she will wake up. Throwing up really wont kill her. Her breath will smell bad, and her enamel on her teeth will deteriorate, and she might have a sore throat. She wont die, though.
i kinda have a thing but i dont know what youd call it...if i get angry or stressed or pissed off i eat and eat and eat for a coupla hours straight, stuff like cheese and chocolate [theyre my comfort food kinda things] and i drink loadsa milk and juice and then i work out like crazy that night, just cuz i feel fucked for eating loads.

Yea, thats minor comfort eating. More or less normal - I do it.
