A member asked:
How can i help someone with an eating disorder?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Care: Encourage them to get medical care. There are many factors that can drive eating disorders. The situations can be very complex and quite a bit for a nonprofessional to handle on their own. Encourage them to get help from an eating disorder specialist and support them throughout the treatment process.
