How old ...Hi Colleen -<BR/><BR/>I'm sorry about your sister. How old is she? If she's younger, there are definitely ways to insist she gets treatment. I'd suggest contacting the Joslin Clinic - or perhaps a local hospital or clinic with an eating disorder unit. When I was treated, it was in a wing of the local Pysch Hospital in their unit focused on eating disorders. Most eating disorders are rooted in the same sort of issues. <BR/><BR/>If she's older, she's going to need to make the decision to get treatment on her own. The best you can do is provide her with as much information as possible, express your concerns and encourage her to get help. <BR/><BR/>I wish I could be of more assistance, but really - with an adult or young adult - the person really needs to want to recognize the issue and work to get better.<BR/><BR/>You can email me (on site) if you want to talk more.<BR/><BR/>NicoleNicole Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11847231791131970750noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14941147.post-50330939772448399072007-06-26T19:09:00.000-07:002007-06-26T19:09:00.000-07:00My sister I believe suffers from diabulemia and I ...My sister I believe suffers from diabulemia and I do not know how to help her. I helped her by getting a diabetes/eating disorder counselor, she went twice and stopped going, even though she said she liked the counselor. She was recently hospitalized for DKA and I am really scared for her life. Any suggestions?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14941147.post-1137191718468705852006-01-13T14:35:00.000-08:002006-01-13T14:35:00.000-08:00Well *that* didn't work.

Really, really scary to think about! <BR/><BR/>When I hosted Teen Talk over at Diabetes Portal, we had a woman come on the show to talk about eating disorders and diabetes. It was mostly focused on eating disorders in addition to diabetes, however. <BR/><BR/>We have the transcript archived if anyone is interested: http://www.diabetesteentalk.com/oldsite/transcripts/10_01_03.htm.Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09845901120926051578noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14941147.post-1137191508289492312006-01-13T14:31:00.000-08:002006-01-13T14:31:00.000-08:00Yeah, I have heard of it before, but not with the ...Yeah, I have heard of it before, but not with the term Diabulimia.
