Unfortunately, my family doesn't care. Immediate such as mother and sister. I was ALWAYS there for them but when I need help they've never been here for me. My fiance knows me and knows that what's happening is very real and is scared for me as I'm undiagnosed. I try to keep laughing and I can't everyday. I meditate alot. I love myself even though my body is fighting me. Please don't let the actions of others leave you in a depressed state...it's Awful but the reality is it's them... NOT you! I hope you have someone anyone that is supportive...hugs...

just like paul said, ignore them, the kids that really love you , stick it out with you, really, or some friends agree with you, go watch a movie with them it does get your mind off sometimes,

My family ignores me so I just ignore them. I get a lot of love and support online which helps.
