Hey guys, Sorry I haven't been on in forever.
I didn't die, or forget about you all, I promise!
Basically I screwed up and got grounded. This time until June. (my mom doesn't know I'm online right now)
I'll try to get on as much as I can, but obviously I can't much.
Anyway, other then that, life's been ok....Alright, I'm lying. Life hasn't been great. Mostly because a friend, I'll call her A is anorexic. And she and her mother are in denial. I got to see her a couple weekends ago (for the first time in two years), and it scared me because I instantly saw how little she's eating. How she refuses food with a ton of fancy excuses.
A isn't too skinny yet, but she is right on the cusp. And she told me she ODed on laxatives, and was Normal Weight Vomiting (it's only bulimia if you binge). She also told me she spit food out when her parents weren't watching.
A has a horrible self image, she always has. About a year ago she started cutting (that, thank any gods out there, she stopped after a while), and now she has an eating disorder. What's next? Suicide?
I'm so scared guys... She's like a sister to me. What do I do if she kills herself this way? I told my mom about the starving herself, and the laxatives. Mom tried telling A's mom about the starving. But A's mom isn't listening to us.
I think a lot of the problem stems from A's dad. I read that some girls become anorexic because they lack control over any part of their lives. That's true for A. Her father listens in on phone calls, reads her diary, and even knows the passcodes to any online things she has. Also, A is homeschooled, so there isn't any school to be free at, and she's not part of any social thing so I'm basically her only friend. (And he doesn't even like A talking to me)
....................I'm sorry to dump all this on you guys.
Other then that, I did a lot of yard work with my older brother. We're both getting $20+ for it. It was a lot of hard work.
