Blog #9 - Eating Disorder

Having a friend with an eating disorder is very difficult to find a way to deal with. You don't want to push them away by confronting them, but you also do not want to watch them die because that is what will eventually happen if someone does not step up and say something. So what I would do is find a way to confront that person. Not in a mean way but as a concerned friend. Maybe gather some information to have some facts right there in front of both of us. Maybe talk them into attending a group session that I would attend also as support. I would try my best to let them know that it is their well being I am concerned about and let them know that my door is always open if they need me for anything.
