anorexia

Anybody out there know anything about teenage anorexia? I have recently seen my niece and I am sure she is suffering. I want to help, but know nothing about the problem. Thanks.

Oyster ears, from what I've seen and read about anorexia its a really difficult disease to both detect and to treat. If she is suffering from it intervine ASAP. Good luck cause you'll need it. I hope she isn't in full blown denial it will be easier to treat...

Oyster, since you live in the area I know someone you could talk with to learn great contacts in Baltimore and Philadelphia. I think she would be an excellent resource for you. Feel free to call me.
