This may be the reason why your grandmother can not accept the truth of your disorders. It may be a conscious effort but i am guessing that she is in denial - one of Freud's defense mechanisms unconsciosly employed by the ego to help deal with anxiety/stress... Since other members of your family also have disorders your grandmothers mind probably can not handle the anxiety and stress her worrying causes her. I am sure she is not intentionaly trying to hurt you. I really think that she may be in denial.
Hope you feel better,
