Kim tells her best friend, Sarah, that she is worried about her sister.

| OMG, last night I saw my sister forcing herself to throw up. I think she has done it before to lose weight. What should I do? | |
 | |  |
|
 |
| | |
| We just talked about eating disorders in our health class.You should go to your school counselor. | |

Kim goes to tell her school counselor about the situation.
|
|
|
|
| | |
| She thinks she is FAT, but it's not true. She is bone thin. She barely eats and when she does eat, she makes herself throw it up. | |
| | |
|
|
| | |
| You are right to worry Kim. I will talk with some professionals here at school and we will see what we can do to get your sister some help. | |

The counselor goes to the school psychologist and explains the situation.

| | |
| I wanted to bring it to your attention Frank. My student is very worried about her sister. Do you think it could be Anorexia Nervosa? | |
| | |
|
 |
| | |
| Yes, it sounds like it could be Anorexia. Let's talk with the student, get the parents involved and the school nurse. Then we can see what other outside resources we can offer the family. | |
