I would definitely press the issue with your t. Until I was in my late 40's and on Seroquel I was very thin. 5'6" and 110lbs. I wasn't trying to be thin, I had just always been that way. I was skinny shamed so badly! "You must live on a raisin a day"..."I know you're a ballet dancer, but do you starve yourself on purpose?"..."You know you have anorexia, right?"

The fact was I had NO food issues.


My point is, it can really, really hurt and damage one's self-esteem to be skinny shamed. I know that you're already self-conscious about being thin. Yes, talk with her. It's an important topic for your therapy with her.
