There are many different kinds of eating disorders and they will each affect the sufferer in different ways. However, from personal experience and knowledge I can safely say that the suffering is indescribable and horrific, and anyone suffering from an ED should seek professional help. The suffering is too immense to go it alone, in my opinion.
Aside from the sufferer, eating disorders can affect family and friends, who struggle to understand the causes and symptoms they are suffering. Eating disorders can make a person very stressed and angry, therefore this can put a huge strain on their relationships with the people around them.

Just let them know that you love them and that you are there for them no matter what. Never get angry or yell at the person, they are just as frustrated as you are. Read about eating disorders so you can better understand them. It will make being supportive a lot easier.

Presumably when you say "buliamarexia" you are referring to Bulimia and Anorexia These are two common eating disorders and are not a single item. Anorexia nervosa (anorexia) is commonly where the person suffering from this disorder does not eat. Bulimia nervosa (bulimia) is commonly where the person suffering from this disorder overeats (eats a lot) and then purges themselves (makes themselves sick).

Bulimia is similar but instead of not eating the person forces themselves to throw up all the food. There are other disorders in which a person compulsively overeats.
