One of my 14 yo daughter's best friends was recently diagnosed w/ anorexia. My daughter was one of only two people she told about the real reason for her hospitalization. Since her return home, she has become increasingly mean to my daughter, yelling at her in front of others, excluding her from activities, etc. Recently she told my daughter that I was calling her mom to check up on her, which is, of course, not the case.
Is this type of behavior tied into the anorexia? Is there an effective way to deal with it, or should my daughter just cut ties to her?
