Pretty sure you will get help from any bureau be it from psychiatirsts to police department to any shit ass faggot from streets. This isnt thread for Jow Forums because what can we do? Any of us? Tell you to beat your mother to death? Or take your sister and run? Either tell this to your anut, father, uncle, grandparents or police. Since your sister is 8 im estimating you are underaged (migh be wrong). If you understand what im saying and trying to tell you. This isnt your fight you have your problems with growing up doing many other things. Tell adults to take care of this.

Do you live with them? Can you sneak your sister proper food?

If they won't investigate lethal child abuse, surely they wouldn't investigate a 'kidnapping'.
Nicholas Ortiz
Spam your mother with 'click bait' articles that actually give good advice. Or at least non-lethal advice, since she probably won't listen to the good advice. I'm talking "chocolate prevents cancer, butter coffee cures cancer, a high fat makes you invincible, a carnivore diet makes you see in 6 dimensions"
Ethan Parker
Knowing nothing about Lithuania, it's still EU and it's not one of the worst off eastern european countries. I'm pretty sure your country has child services that can take the kid away from your mom

I'll try it then. Just in past cases it didn't work... But yet again, my father is friends with a cop or two. Think I can user report them?
My father got brainwashed by his wife. If I can anonymously report her, that would be the first option I'd go through. I had told a literal doctor "hey, why am I always emaciated and sick and have heart issues?" and she confirmed my mother had forced me on a horrible diet that was killing me. I had no clue why she didn't tell me until I moved out. And despite her knowing that my sister is being also emaciated but even worse than I was, she doesn't do anyhhing, nor help me report it. She was just like "lol, no big deal". Tons of doctors have seen my emaciated sister, none reported it. They would just let her go as soon as they'd feed her enough to fix the weight. So it kinda made me lose hope that an anonymous call would do anything.
No. I live far away. Moved out because I didn't want my mother further killing me with her diet. She is the cause of many health issues I now have. Most I've done is called my sister and tried telling her to beg for more normal food.
Heh. I wish.
user, she is mentally ill. Think an anorexic would suddenly wake up with scientific proof? Hasn't made Eugenia Cooney wake up. I've been trying this for a year now with no results. She believes all meat causes cancer and vegans never get sick nor tumors. Even though I literally got cancer due to her forced veganism diet when I was a teen.
I am literal living proof, a mess of a human being, who's entire life has been ruined through my mother's mentally ill diets, and she still doesn't believe she is mentally ill and Orthorexic.

Talk to her, not from a "I think you are crazy and wish to disprove everything you think" perspective, but a "can you tell me more about what you are doing?". You can assess and decide if to bring up mistaken poison needles or not based on how sensible she is being.
My major problem with veganism is that it often promotes a similar ideologically driven approach which rejects facts which do not mesh with the core ideology. There exists a grey area in everything and doing 'what is best' often requires dipping into and out of many opposing camps. People who are evangelical in their beliefs are working with faith not fact, they usually take motivation from belief, from an anger or hatred of a perceived 'other'.
From my perspective too much fat or too much carbohydrate will kill you eventually. Too much protein is the most benign, but is too expensive for the world to sustain. The key is to eat high quality nutritious foods. Low quality empty fat calories, low quality empty carbohydrate calories, meeting your calorie goals while failing to meet a minimum level of nutrition? No good.
I believe our agriculture evolved alongside animals and that high tech monoculture for plants and animals harms the environment. It is intensive, requiring loads of energy, water and chemicals. It has limited biodiversity, promotes disease amongst plants and animals, ignores the synergistic potential of both.
Like you want to grow crops? Great, chickens are an excellent natural way to control pests and produce fertiliser. Anyway, I'm getting off topic.
From my perspective children need a slight calorie surplus from nutritious food until early adulthood to reach maximum potential growth for mind and body. They might enter adulthood a bit chubby, but that is easily lost. You don't starve a developing brain of fat. Vitamin b is REALLY difficult to keep on top of even for adult vegetarians. You either eat vitamin b fortified food several times a day as well as supplementing or inject.

report child abuse to the social services, probably your best bet

>Talk to her, not from a "I think you are crazy and wish to disprove everything you think" perspective, but a "can you tell me more about what you are doing?". You can assess and decide if to bring up mistaken poison needles or not based on how sensible she is being. Tried. Failed. She had mother issues and husband issues so she always wants conflict and fighting. She doesn't like peace unless you're agreeing with her.
Brandon Sanders
can she not see that her daughter's teeth are 'rotting out' ? what the fuck is wrong with her
Xavier Murphy
Shoot your mom. Oooh wait you're a eurocuck lmao
Jack Price
Grab your sis and run. Preferably to a family member who you know will back you up.
Michael Diaz
She just blames it on her not brushing enough. As someone who grew up with my mother, she's the type who will force you to brush and keep track of your teeth, so that's a lie. Even if it was true, she'd basically be saying she's either way irresponsible.
She hid from me about the teeth condition for months. I only found out through a call session with my sister, when she complained about her teeth. My brother confirmed it was true.
True.
>Preferably to a family member who you know will back you up. Oh, you mean, no one? They would just return the kid via guilt trip. Also I live in another country now, sadly. But still, thanks. I wish I could.

english is not perfect but try to understand my meaning
beat her you fool. there is a correct time and reason for beating a woman, and needless hurting a child for their own arrogance is one of them. beat her and tell her if she doesn't behave correctly you'll make sure they never find her fucking body. scare her so much she doesn't even think of calling the police on you. make her spend the next month wondering if you're going to come murder her in her sleep. my sister used to get drunk and beat her daughter with a wooden spoon beyond the point any reasonable person would have stopped and every one told me I had no right to interfere, but I decided damn them and thrashed my sister all over her shitty apartment and told her I would gladly spend the rest of my life in prison to save my niece from her if she did not unfuck herself, and to this day she has never harmed the child again
it is something cruel but it is effective
Adrian Davis
I hope child protective services works for you man. There's not really anything else you can do, and this kind of shit is what they should be for.
Liam Hill
Sad, ugly truth of the world, innit.
Benjamin Diaz
I'm a tiny weak female. She has a giant husband.
I'm hoping I won't be ignored like how the doctors so far have ignored. I remember when my friends would see my sister walking around half naked, and get shocked and ask me why she looks like a walking skeleton.
Thanks.
Levi Hill
Miserable vegan types don't want to hear about nice things being good for you. Only disgusting shit like grass and tofu and lentils. If your body survives your soul will lose the will to live. You have a Baba? Go see her for a feast
Sebastian Sullivan
This also. I had to beat the crap out of a friend many years ago for constantly beating his mum for dope money. He never has since, also he thanks me often.
Noah Robinson
that will make it ten times worse. speaking from experience, when an anorexic is "tricked" or finds out that something has more calories than they thought it did, it ends with them becoming paranoid and cutting out more things, making everything a lot worse.
in my case, for example: >watch documentary on eating disorders >"as a bulimic girl, I can't drink diet soda because it has one calorie, not zero" >ohfuck.jpeg >gain fear of all liquid calories (including soups, smoothies, soda, diet soda, coffee, some teas) and van now only drink green tea and water
trying to decieve her can and will go wrong in so many ways. don't do stupid shit, if it gets any worse, I highly recommend calling child protective services

I wonder what caused my mother's orthorexia sometimes? Also she was awful with diet when I was a child but she's much worse now cuz she never stopped reading all those click bait vegan articles everyday. She keeps getting more and more retarded.
Elijah Lee
I don't know, could be childhood trauma relating to food, could be something completely unrelated to food. for me, I was just born with genetic OCD which largely manifested in food/weight and it lead to an eating disorder, of course. if she didn't give a shit what she ate through her late teen years, I don't expect it to be genetic, those things usually kick in at age 11-14 at the latest, for me since i was about 5/6.
Jackson Campbell
you try and get your mom to have your sister stay with you for like a week and try and feed her real shit or you can just wait for your mother to die
Kevin Fisher
Reading through this thread it sounds like you don't have very many options, at this point I suppose you could try to be as graphic as humanly possible and guilt her into finally realing that she's going to kill her fucking child if she doesn't stop, you've said you cannot take her away or report your mother so you need to convince her somehow, someway. Most likely through guilt. That or just get someone like a freind or some person of authority to back you up in taking your sister away from that place. Whatever it takes, otherwise your sister is going to die or end up wishing she was dead. Unfortunate but what else can you do.
Logan James
Yeah she has ocd tier paranoia in terms of germaphobia. She cleans everyday, 5 hours or at least 3, yet lives in an apartment, not a mansion.
