I have so much respect for you that you did this video for your friend. She doesn't realize right now what an amazing person you are because ED (eating disorder) won't allow her to see things rationally right now. I hope she is better...I see this video was from awhile ago..how are things now? Is she getting help from anyone like seeing a counselor or anything. I hope your hangin in there..don't take what she says personally. She is just stuck in a disorder and doesn't mean what she says!

[bekbek93]

@tennisgirl200 thank you. yeh i made this video a while ago. now she's moved on, she's still v. aware of her appearance etc but she is healthier now, which is great. sadly we aren't v. close anymore and she has little to do with me. i hope she realises that i was just trying to help her. but all i care about now is that she continues to get better, even if it's kinda wrecked our friendship - her health is more important.

@bekbek93 i understand it is hard anorexia wrecked your friendship! but you did all you could have possibly done.. you were there for her and hopefully one day she will understand and come back to you. i hope you are having a great couple of friends yourself.. you need them too! love you <3

So don't hate me. Oh Becky please don't hate me.

[Bittersweet16Blogs]

You have to understand... i'm not 'good at everything' and i never wanted you to feel like this. Never, not for a moment. You are beautiful... and you always were. I'm not lying, ask anyone. You are. And we love you just as you are... not as you should be, or think you should be. Just. As. You. Are.

I am crying so, so hard right now. Oh gosh... Becky... dear, dear Becky. How could you? you said we did this to you.. and now when i look over at your empty chair all i hear in my head is 'Look at what you've done, look what you've done to me' no no no no... and you're mother... screaming out her car window when she drove past... the look on your face when i spoke to you last. Pure hatred. But you don't understand. All i did was love you. That's all.

it may seem she doesn't want you as a friend but what you see isn't her it's her illness. don't give up on her, and also remember to take good care of yourself. Try to stay strong.
