[QUOTE="allhaileris, post: 527525, member: 5663"] With my daughter, I have no idea what to believe or not. The cutting and not eating thing, I would probably believe that. I (in my non-doctor knowledge) think they're both forms of being able to control oneself. I see my daughter eat fine at home, and then refuse to eat her food at school, or even (supposedly) drink any water all day. She makes up for it usually, but is much younger than your daughter. I don't understand why she'd be passing blood in relation to that. Was she sure it wasn't blood from her period (that would be my first guess, as clumps can come out on the toilet)? Was she eating a bunch of red stuff? If she was indeed passing blood, that is a serious issue and she should see a doctor. I'd tell her that you're going to take her for a colonoposy because of it and see what she says. Let her know what's involved. Would she fess up then? The hair thing, I guess it depends on the hair. I have super thick hair and the one time it fell out, after pregancy, was the best I've liked the thickness of my hair. Nobody could tell, even at it's worst it still is healthy looking (just turning gray). Her hormone levels or lack of nutrients could cause that. But then they'd do something to her nails too, right? Look at her nails, any ridges or lines? I have some because I know I need more of certain vitamins. You're not a horrible mother. It's just hard to believe somebody when all they do is lie. But her writing it in a note makes it more believable. My daughter expresses herself better in writing, but again, she's younger and has communication issues. [/QUOTE]
