Hi!
A lot of what Kathrin said makes sense (hehe, you should be a psych major) anyway---
I know about the mom thing. I have a lot of issues with my mother as well. She doesn't know about my ED, but when people make comments such as "You should watch Sarah, she never eats...." or "Sarah's getting really skinny, i'm starting to worry." My mom will say things like "Oh no, she's fine, look at her, her legs are still really chubby." or "She eats all the time, she doesn't stop eating." or "Yea, well, you should see her in the bathing suit, she's not so skinny then." And these things crush me. I think it's harder to hear from your mom, becaues this is someone that you trust so incredibly much, and this is someone that you love so incredibly much. Someone that you want approval from on every single level...and if they can't give you their support and approval on this then it's like you're back at square one. Good luck, I know mom's are hard. Don't let her ruin all the work you're going through. Your'e better than an ED, I promise...even if you're struggling with your mom right now and she can't see this.
NEVER GIVE UP
