Anorexia… almost discovered

During the time I was most actively anorexic, a relative and her family came to visit us.The relative, a woman whose background was mental health (but who was not well-respected by our side of the family), told my mother she thought I was anorexic.
After the relative left, my mother confronted me, but not in the way that you’d think. She pooh-poohed what the relative had said, rolling her eyes when she told me.
Inside, I felt like shouting, “But I AM anorexic!”
I said nothing, of course.
And so the charade continued, undeterred.
