That’s why I stayed home from Thanksgiving tonight. I don’t want to constantly be asked “do you want this to eat? Why not? How about some pie?” I don’t feel like it’s any of their business why I’m not eating a lot. And I don’t want to feel the pressure or feel self conscious about it. The only person who fully knows about this is my therapist and my Pdoc but he’s been instructed not to talk to me about it.

Also no means no. In any type of situation. And family members should be the most understanding.
