Eating disorder adult child: How can I help her?

Oh, gosh, so sorry to hear about your son's challenges. It is difficult to
find out that there is little that can be done.
I may not be using the right terminology. We think something bothers her
mentally, but she seems like
basically a normal person (or almost anyway). I do not know if she has
bulimia - I just think she eats very tiny
meals. I do not know enough about it. She does take a lot of vitamins and
generic pills, etc. She is diligent about working on this problem and that
problem, but I just do not know what this is all about. She has never
required hospitalization but she has lost so much weight. She works on
trying to keep physically fit but she has several troublesome things. She
lives with husband and 2 children, and has worked full-time for 20 years,
but now is seeking P/T if she finds something she likes. I think that is
probably a very good decision. However, thank you,
I will check the link you gave me. She lives 600 miles away, but maybe
there is something in her area we will
check out. I do not know how serious this is, but it definitely should be
addressed. Best wishes to you and your
family for a nice Thanksgiving holiday.
