My family knows. My dad for some reason is the best with it, my mom and brothers and sister want me to just snap out of it. They think I just need the attention...

My family doesn't know that I've relapped. I don't talk about it to anyone close to me. I don't want to hear their disappointment in me.

oh gosh. my family was in denial for like 12 years. they are finally coming about. My dad was the hardest to get to understand, he would just say its all in my head and I need to just eat. My mom however, thought I was on my last dying breath each second and is down my throat all the time. My siblings (first my two brothers) were really sympathetic, they didnt know how to react, but my sister would just yell at me and try and make me feel guilty and turn it all on her. Then at one point my whole family just got really annoyed and angry at me. Now its just my sister. but that took 6 months of family therapy.

I'm not sure, I can't read them....they look at me weird, mostly in the kitchen area... my mom and I were kinda open in the first, but she thinks is something easy and like an on off switch, which its not... they don't know how hard it really is for me...
