Comments You Should Not Make To Your Friend Who Has An Eating Disorder.

• "You look like you have AIDS."
• "I don't understand WHY you don't just eat..."
• "You better stay out of the bathroom!"
• "Why are you doing this to me?"
• "Why are you doing this to yourself?"
• "Would you look at what you're doing to your family and friends?"
• "You have good things in your life, so what's your problem?"
• "Just sit down and eat like a normal person."
• "You've put on weight, you look great."
• "I'll help to fatten you up."
• "Are you keeping anything down?" or "When did you last puke?"
• "If you think you're fat, you must think that I'm obese."
• "Go ahead and have a drink or eat that. You'll just go and throw it up anyways, so what does it matter?"
• "For someone with an eating disorder, you're sure pigging out today."
• "Quit feeling sorry for yourself."
• "I barely ate once for a week, so I know what you are going through."
