how could i tell her?

[jalila09]

ok so im jus starting to realize that this problem that ive had for forever is
an actual problem. i would jus call it a slight phobia and ive dealt with
it for as long as i can remember, in own way. i had a pretty good way of
hiding it...and i was ok with hiding it. it was never hurting me and i wasnt
skipping meals or not eating certain things because of the fear of gettin sick
and as long as i wasnt doin anything extreme...i was good. but i dont want
to get worse. i wanna tell my mom about this, but i have a history of blowin
things out of porportions. i complain whenever i get a new pimple or split
ends lol..but i kno for a fact that this is nothin like that ive had for this for as
long as i can remember. but i dont think she'll take me seriously.

Hey welcome to the site!


You could tell your mum you want to talk to her about something, and she needs to take it seriously. Then show this site to her. Here's a link to an info article you can show her from the treatments thread, it's for therapists and families etc. I'm not sure ifthe link willwork [img]smileys/smilies_09.gif[/img](I'mnot goodwith computers) lol

Also show her some of the posts on this site- maybe she'll realise some of the things people say sound like how you feel alot of the time.


I hope that helps!
