Ways/threats to........?

Question

As i said before in my earlier question.....my sister skips meals..(and she's not even fat at all)..skipped meals for like 6 weeks once and went to the hospital,she's out now and recovered from that but she is skipping meals again..i talked to her and all that kind of stuff....but she won't listen and so now I'm making her eat by force......my friend actually did that to his sister and now she(his sister) eats regularly by herself (he said if she don't eat he's gonna tell her mom she crashed the car lol) and I'm hoping that it will work on my sister too but.....i need a threat like "if you don't eat I'm going to..." or something that will make her eat. Any seggestions? and don't suggest to tell my mom "cause i tried and she was happy for my sister i know it's bad....but whatever (and someone thought i was a chick earlier...I'm not..i'm a dude)

Answer 1

There's a reason why she is not eating and until you/she finds out what that reason is and deals with it then it would be hard to make her change. Her not eating is only a symptom of a bigger issue. If you could get her to talk to you and find out why she doesnt eat then you are on the road to help her change her eating habits. By just making her eat  you are only dealing with the symptom, you need to find the reason for why she doesnt eat. In the meantime...just let her know how much you love and care about her and that it is unhealthy for her to not eat. That she is hurting herself by not eating and that hurts you to see her do that to herself. Let her know that you are there for her to help and support her any way that you can. I think its very cool that you care so much for your sis that you would ask this question. :0)

Answer 2

Your sister has an eating disorder and she needs professional medical help. You cannot force her to eat and using threats can make it worse, or even make her depressed.

Tell her to see her doctor about it.

UPDATE:

Tony, I know she won't want help, but she NEEDS help. It will only get worse and she could end up seriously anorexic. If you need to, call her doctor yourself and tell her doctor - you don't need to tell her if you don't want to. The doctor will porbably give you advice and maybe even come round and check her out.

Answer 3

This is completly normal 2 worry about ur sister its not cause ur a sissy.  If shes gone to the hospital its serious so i'd say to tell her how gorgeous and good she looks in her own skin, try telling one of her friend and maybe she could help her, NO THREATS!! itll just make her feel worse, tell her how u dont want her 2 go 2 the hospital and get sick anymore itll show her you care and be completly genuine and caring DONT BE MEAN!!!

Answer 4

if you dont eat i will post naked pics of you on facebook!  

Answer 5

I'd say don't let her leave the table until she eats, don't threaten her
