Need help with a friend of a friend.

[Jack]

I found out today there's this girl I sort of know, whos friends with a friend of mine. I was told she has hardly been eating anything due to depression for the last few weeks and has lost 2 stone, is hardly eating anything.

 

Her friends have told her about all the dangers and she could be doing. Shes not eating not entirely due to depression but because she thinks shes fat. True I know a lot about health, and also a fair amount about people - but has anybody here got any advice I could pass onto this girl, or give to her friends to pass on?

Thanks Yoda. I read it for a bit then gave the link to my friend. She's been really thankful and said it could really help her mate.

My cousin is anorexic and some of that info might help her too.

well all I can say is a girl at our school that i know thinks she was fat but was normal weight so she went on a diet. Then she got to skiney and her Mom said if you don't eat you wont go to school and you well go to homeschool. So then she got to skiney she had to go to the hospital for a while over a week to gain weight or something and not die. But I think she is out now but in a wheelchair but I havent talked with her or heard anything of how she is doing though.
