Encourage her to do things for her. Help her to raise her self esteem.  Let her know that she is important and that you care for her. Tell her she looks fine.\nAnd you can talk normally with her, I'd recommend don't say to her how pretty are top models or other women (above all if they are skinny or very skinny). You can let her know that the people very skinny can affect their health. That every one must find one their ideal weight, and it is the weight you feel confortable with and also is healthy for you.

Take the bus and go to the emergency room if you can't go and see your physician.  Things like this can get REALLY bad if you don't go and see a doctor.  I don't condone ignoring your mother's wishes, but in this case: SCREW IT! GO AND SEE THE DOCTOR!!!!

You need to tell someone! So what if she finds out?! She may not be able to ask for help directly, so she's begging you and your mate to do it for her. She may not say so in so many words, but she's crying out for help. It's possible that the doctor she sees isn't the right one for her. And it's also possible that she needs to be hospitalized for a while. Don't delay! Don't wait for those exam results! Tell someone now! Get her the help she needs! Tell her parents, school counselor, someone! Think how you will feel if you don't tell and she succeeds the next time. I pray that you'll find someone to tell and your friend gets the help she needs. She's blessed to have such good friends who care so much!

This is the problem with our country's health system - middle Americans are getting squeezed out.\n\nHere are a couple of options:\n1)  If she's in school have her talk to the administration.  There should be some kind of student health care or they should be able to point her to services\n2)  Research the nearest dental college - they probably will do it for free.\n3)  Go to the free clinic and see what they advise.\n4)  Ask her employer for an advance\n5)  Go to the hospital emergency room - if left untreated this will be a serious medical problem.\n\nGood Luck!

Have her start a webpage at www.caringbridge.com.  That way many people will find out about her and pray!  Otherwise have her talk with her hospital social worker about places for financial help. www.acor.org has links to support groups. You might try and go visit her as well.  Good luck!

For sure you must support her as much as you can,( and im sure you are) always make yourself available if she needs someone to talk to. Talk to a social worker at school, your local police department, maybe even visit a church. Dont close any doors,or avenues, you never know what might help her. Gather all your information and along with her and whatevr else you come up with, try to make a decision. Sometimes we are not even aware of the types of help their are for us untill we begin to look into it.  Its kind of like shopping for stuff, sometimes you dont know who has the best sales and best clothes that are just right for you untill you get out there and start looking around.

See a thearapist or psyciatrist <sp?>.  Therapy and/or dication helps alot.  If the situation gets to bad and your affraid that you might hurt yourself in the real near future, get yourself to the ER / Hospital.  Psyc. hospitals aren't as bad as they are protraited and it may save your life.\n\nIn short there is help out there, if you can't find it on your own, your family doctor can steer you in the right direction.

Please call a hotline right now. There are mental health hot lines. There are suicide hot lines. There are abuse hotlines.  Open your telephone book right now and look in the front. There are listings there for help and you need to call one of the numbers now. I don't know where you live but I know in Florida that if you have a mental problem and you cannot afford the medications, then some of the mental clinics and hospitals will give you the medications at little or no cost. My daughter has had mental problems all her life and the times when I could not afford her medications or blood tests, they provided them to me for as little as $3.00 per month. \n\nIf you were in a residential treatment facility, then whay aren't you on medicaide?  You could be on S.S.I disability and that would automatically get you the medicade. \n\nBut the important thing is to call and get help now.  In Florida there is a baker act law, it just means that if the courts or doctors or a family memb er ar friend, thinks that you are a danger to yourself or anyone else, then you are put in a facility until they can evaluate you and get you back on your medications. My daughter has been baker acted 9 times and only once by me and my husband. \n\nIf you can't find a mental health place tonight that will help you, then you should find out which hospital in your area has a psych unit and go to their emergancy room tonight. You are asking for help and here it is. Now GO.

First talk to her about how it upsets you. Then if she can't do anything else, tell her you'll tell her mom but you guys can do it together or tell her she should tell her. or any other person she might trust, but has authority. Be careful to tell her how much you care about her and that if she keeps going in that direction, what if one day the cut is too deep and she's gone for good? Talk, listen, and support her in getting help. She will need it!

You don't  HAVE to tell them anything.  They will encourage you to share your problems and offer possible interventions.\n\nThey will ask your name, just so they have something to call you. Just a first name -- you can make one up. \n\nHot lines are manned by different people.  I work in a hospital ER and often answer these calls.  Hopefully you will get someone with mental health training, but some hot lines are manned by trained volunteers.\n\nYou can ask anything, or say anything -- you are in control; you are the one who can simply hang up.\n\nWe're there to help you, not to get you in trouble with your mother.  We want you to live and will try to help you find a reason to.\n\nI do have to tell you, if you call and say you just took 100 Tylenol, we will trace your call and send an ambulance.\nLike I said we want you to live.

i'm not a doctor yet (two more years), but if i were in her doctor's position, i'd say she should pretty much just say what you said. as long as she's not seeing some jerk, he'll be very willing to help out and get her family involved in the situation.  after your daughter has said that she's contacted her doctor about the situation and signed the release, call his office and then you can try to set up a time to talk with him about her case.

Please contact your local women's shelter. They usually have toll free hot lines as well. You need to get out now for you self and especially for your daughter. I was once trapped or so I thought. I have survived on my own and I am better for it, and so are my sons.
