My little brother weighs nothing.
Eating Disorder Support / by AmeliaAdrianna

...See more I have never personally been impacted by eating disorders but my little brother either has anorexia or is well on the way to it. He is twelve years old. He weighs (Edited by Hope for mentioning specific weight counts) I'm scared for him. He is currently seeing a psychologist for his anxiety but I want to know if there is anything I can do to help him. He doesn't eat, he never really has. He says that he doesn't know why he doesn't eat, only that he can't. He is slightly mentally delayed and his medication further discourages his appetite. I try to cook him food he likes but he is a picky eater and often sneaks away and hides his food in the trash and then lies about it. I don't like getting upset at him when this happens, but I'm scared and I'm worried and I don't know what to do. He doesn't understand the seriousness of what is happening and I'm scared that one day he's going to go too far and not wake up the next day. Is there anything you can think of that I can do to help him? I'd really appreciate the support. Thank you.
