i hate "just stops"
that is the response of the ignorant.

just know that no matter what those people will never disown you; they love you. your ED does not define who you are. it is only a glitch on this journey that you are on. i can relate. people "know" you, but they don't "know" you. it is your choice to let them in, and i am sure they will embrace you in ALL that you are not just some false image that you are giving them. we all have ugliness in our lives; some worse than others, but you need to be happy with yourself before you can even begin to give yourself to others.
