Early stages: You are a good friend for asking here. Like a lot of things, it is easier to treat an eating disorder in the early stages. Approach your friend from a perspective of compassion. She is suffering in ways that she isn't aware of. Can you tell her your concerns directly? If she isn't ready to hear them it is normal. Please give us more specifics about the situation. There is help. Good luck.
