My bff is anorexic, what can I do to help her?! I HATE watching her suffer. Please what can I tell or do to her so she can get better?

You should be there for her. Ask her why she feels that way and go get proffesional help. Does she want to get help? If not then even proffesional help won't help. She needs to admit and see the problem that she has.

She know her problem and wants to get over it. She also goes to a therapist. However, I don't think thats enough.

But paula is right, if she doesn't accept it and want to get over it she can't.

My bestfriend is a recovering anorexic. She has been for 4 years, at her worst she was 4 stone. Shes now 18, and is completely turning her life around.
I promise you, there is hope, even if her darkest hour. You just need to be there for her, even when she doesn't want you to be there for her. Don't give up on her, that's the worst you can do. If she wants professional help, she'll seek it. Like you said, a therapist probably isn't enough. She should maybe try going to a psychologist who specialises in eating disorders, or see if her therapist who can link her onto further treatment.

I understand you it is really hard to watch your loved ones suffer. She has to go to the doctor. But it is not easy to make somebody to even admit that she is anorexic and doctor is high step. You should be supportive but don't overdo it. You just can go there and say ' Stop with that you are anorexic''. You have to go step by step. When you are talking to her tell her that she is pretty. Don't complain on your weight or don't say that any other is fat. Once you see she is happy start a conversation with her and don't talk just about her problem, talk about some your problem. Or how you overcome it. If you try and try and try you will help her. :-). Good luck. If she stops with your help tell me I will be really happy to hear that. ;)

Tell her you love her. Tell her every day every second whatever it takes.

For someone to get over something they that, they really have to WANT to. It's all them, but support still helps. Maybe try to get her interested in working out, it's a good way to stay skiny without harming yourself. I know what it's like to have a friend you love so dearly do things like that, you feel like you have to be there 24/7 or if not it's your fault. I know it's rough to be that friend, stay strong babe.

My best friend in primary school had anorexia also, she was so little and fragile but she went to her Dr and they gave her this milk to put on weight, it's like a formula. Idk if that helps but maybe you could suggest it to her if she hasn't already tried it :)

Don't suggest working out until she's at a healthy weight, as working out can become addicting for her and she may over do it. @Shaye the milk you mentioned is likely Ensure, which is a nutrient shake and is a good idea for her to get her nutrition w/o feeling like she's eating much.

Always make her feel good but somehow try to get her to have food going through her, like say you yourself are going to make a plan about your diet and stuff for a new year and force her into joining you in the project

I struggle with Anorexia now but I always noticed that when someone brought up how happy it'd make my family feel and my body would feel a lot better I wanted to eat. Just don't force her. Also consider saying things along the lines of" I promise, we'll beat this together" may help too. Also makesure she's seeing professionals.(Nutritionist, regular physician and therapist)
