One of a very small number of girls that I consider a friend has some issues. I'll get right to the point; she has depression, bulimia, low self esteem, cuts herself sometimes, and won't see a therapist...
I want her to be a healthy girl, but is there anything I can do to help her besides just being a friend and talking to her?
I've read the 'write 10 nice things about yourself' thread, and when I ask her to tell me one good thing about her, she can't do it. But for some reason, if she was healthier, I would view her as almost perfect. I've even told her 10 things that were good about her.
She has an 18-year old younger sister that is skinny, attractive, popular and gets a lot of attention. This girl isn't exactly obese, but she is very self conscience about her weight. I'm wondering if some of her problems would go away if she was able to lose some weight, but I'm not going to be the one that tells her that.
I don't know, what should I do?
