My mother has been anorexic for years now, and now im older and more mature,she often tries to dicuss it with me. The physical implications, how she is feeling, what she weighs etc. But i just dont want to hear it. I try to dismiss it and appear apathetic when she discusses it but she just isnt getting the picture. I dont like talking about it with anyone, and cant bring myself to say the word "anorexia" to her. My psychiatrist has tried to talk about it with me, as she knows my mother and I are close, but i feel almost embarassed to talk about it or even say it. WHy am i like this?
