is my friend bulimic?

My friend is always "sick" or at least that was her reason when I found her throwing up in the girls bathroom one day at lunch. She doesn't eat, I don't think I've ever seen her eat somthing without it being forced down her throat. Shes skinny, too skinny, she has a twenty inch waist. Once she was at my house sleeping over and the next morning I found her passed out by the toilet. She must have been throwing up all night.
I love her like a sister and she's killing herself.

Is she Bulimic? Or is it just me?

Hi Ken20Ken,
I'm sorry that your friend call you fat on Friday.  That was very cold (even it it was a joke).  I've been called fat too and it really, really, really hurt my feelings.  I wanted to die.  When they called me fat, I was  5 ' 7 and weighed 92 pounds.  Do you think I was too fat?

Who is this "friend"? I'm assuming he doesn't know about your problem, but it doesn't matter. Even if he is joking, it can do a lot of damage to your self esteem. i would just tell him you don't like it whe he calls you that.
I have something i'd like to share with you. Somethink i think might help. If you like artsy stuff, i found this activity fun. Find postitive affermation, and write them down on flash cards, then you can decorate around them of on them with stickers, markers, scrapbook paper, whatever you want, and do enough to cover the mirrior in your room or bathroom, so that all you can see is your face. It was hard for me to cover my mirror, but it was a good theriputic activity, and i find it helpful.
