What can i do if my friend is bulimic, can i get her help without her parents finding out?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
How old is your : Friend? If she is a minor her parents should know. If she is an adult, it is up to her. In some states the age for confidentiality varies a bit for adolescents. Check what it is in your state, however, regardless of the law, bulimia is a serious illness and her parents should be involved.
