Okay, so they may still believe that this is just a phase but tell them that you need their help to get out of it. At the end of the day, they are your parents and they care about you. Perhaps they juts don't understand how difficult you're finding everything.
i was first diagnosed when i was 6-7 and got better at 8-9 and i was fine for ages, eating proberly and every thing maybe a bit too much.
when i was 11-12, just got into high school people started calling me fat but i ignored them, when i was 12 i looked in the mirror and my stumach -fat, i asked my mate if i had always had it, she said yeahh, id never noticed it b4 as i never really cared b4,
ever since my stumack is getting bigger, its not flab, it just looks like im pregenant but not majorly pregnant. when i was 13 my eating habbits changed, some times i would eat, somtimes i wouldnt,
as some of you know i have mentiond b4 about me not eating and sean being their trying to get me to eat....
after he found out i hadent eaten for 2 days he took me to speak to one of the lunchtime supervisers at school and she said ' you have to eat some thing, you cant not eat, are you worried about your weight' me being in denail i said no. then after sean said ' you dont need to loose weight, your not fat, your skinneyer than me' (obviously not when hes a twig and im not) but seriously that is the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to me. even tho i know its not true it gave me a massive confidance boost knowing that he was their for meeeeeee, whe i started eating again he disapapered and started ignoring me which is when i started eating bad and self harming. but now that i have sort of got him back, i feel sooo much better, hes talking and everything. since hes been talking to me i havent cut in a week and im eating properly again
