Mom and my eating disorder :/?

I'm 18, I was diagnosed with anorexia back in january but I have struggled for around 2 years. My parents found out in january when I lied to them and said I was having stomach pains which is why I was losing weight, they sent me to the hospital and I think the doctors really knew what was going on :/ after the hospital my tutor at college arranged for me to see a counsellor and that's when my mom found out. I still struggle everyday now and my mom gets angry and goes to my aunties to cry saying that I'm going to die, what should i do???

    Eat. I've suffered from anorexia for a while also and now i eat and am better. I don't eat alot but enough to actually stay alive. And you think the doctors might know? They know you're anerixic. Eat little by little til you're used to food again. Then if your mom sees you eat then she'll know you're trying to get better and she won't cry.

    Continue talking to a counsellor. Try to eat healthy everyday. I mean like eat at least 1200 calories a day. Your mom doesn't trust u, so u need to take action in rebuilding her trust. Try to love yourself more. Avoid the scale and probably the mirror. This is going to be a lot of really hard work. Take baby steps. Don't get discouraged or depressed. U can be successful on this long & difficult journey.
