Okay so here's the deal, my sister said she didn't want me to tell anyone but you guys don't know my sister and will never talk to her and I have to get help somewhere before I can go into therapy on tuesday.
Tonight I'm talking to my sister and she tells me not to get mad but she bought some coke to do, not right away but at a party or something. I didn't get mad cause I think that if you want to do coke or any other drugs then that's your perogative. I am worried cause she's my sister but I'm not going to yell at her or run off to my mom and dad and tell them.
Then she tells me she wants to do coke because she wants to lose weight. Once again I told her what she's trying to accomplish is very dangerous. She says she knows the dangers, but my other sister has done coke before and is fine, so that's what she's basing it on.
So then she says there's something else she needs to tell me, and she makes me promise on EVERYTHING I HOLD DEAR not to get mad. And I really can't get mad at her so I promised and honestly I'm not mad as much as I am worried. She tells me that she's Bulemic. That it's been going on for about a year. She doesn't vomit after EVERYTHING she eats but only after she binges. I once again went over the details with her about how dangerous it could be.
She is 130 pounds and about 5'1 and she thinks she's too fat right? She was down to 110 before she went to college and she looked fabulous and she didn't/doesn't want to lose any more weight then that. I've always thought she looked fine the way she was and I think she's absolutely beautiful. I was probably the ONLY one around her (Family included) That DIDN'T pressure her to lose weight, but my mom and dad were/are ALWAYS on her about losing WEIGHT! I mean ALWAYS! It's terrible and I hate them for it.
Anyway she said she'll talk to a counselor but she doesn't intend to stop being bulemic. I had an idea that she was bulemic when I would come visit her cause she would always go up to her bathroom after we ate and stay in there for a while. It doesn't scare me because it's her vomiting, it scares me because I know how dangerous it is! Is this one of the things I should tell my parents about? Although, and I'm not making this up, my Mom has/Sees NO problem in being bulemic because she's FREAKIN OBSESSED with weight and how other people should look. (She's overweight herself but GOD FORBID me or one of my sisters is) I really don't know what to do or to tell my sister and I'm really scared for her. Can anyone help?
