Anorexic or not?, My friend.. Options

[Jinny]

Okay, I seriously don't know where this topic belongs in.
Feel free to move it!

ANYWAYS..

I have a friend who always weighs herself before a meal. If she weighs over 102 pounds at that time, she refuses to eat. She just tells her mom, "MOM I'M FULL SO I WON'T EAT DINNER!" and her mom just agrees. She doesn't starve herself; she does eat. So does this mean that she's anorexic or not?

anorexia is a psychological disorder.

the notion that skipping a meal because she
weighs 102 pounds is going to keep her at that
weight is untrue.

the idea of starving yourself, period, is tragic.

lying to your mother, saying you're full
when you're Starving!! is terrible.

Anorexic she IS.
She may not physically show it yet,
but she is already
showing signs of the psychological disorder
that being thin is worth starving and
sending your body into survival mode.
(which by the way, you're infact pushing
yourself past that. let the statistics
for the death rate of anorexics speak.)
