Gf has an eating disorder, cuts herself, and is depressed. could these possibly be linked to being abused?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It's quite possible.: Don't know any particulars. But individuals who have suffered early trauma can be at risk for developing mental health problems. I very hope that she is getting good professional care to help work through these issues.
