I have been fighting with this thing. I will try to get this out to you. Your mom does not know about any of this, and your dad knows that you are having a hard time. So, you are afraid of being rejected by your Dad? You really aren't messing up half as bad as you think, my dear! You have an illness. Many people with these types of illnesses turn to drugs and sex and begin to get in trouble. They go backwards, and you are moving forward. You are a full-time student in college. You have a purpose in your life, friends, faith in God. You come here and talk about the things that are overwhelming you. That is really amazing, O.K., so even though it is hard for you to see at this time you are so much better of a person than you think you are. Believe me, I would get nothing out of lying to you. I am a mother, and if something is wrong with my children, I want them to tell me. If I so much as think something is wrong, I try to make sure. You do not have to tell your parents all at once. You could ask your father for help. Just say, "Dad, I have been pretty sick lately, and I have lost a lot of weight. (you don't have to say that you have been purging or dieting) Could you help me out and help me pay for a doctor visit?" Tell him, you just haven't been able to get rid of whatever it is and it's just worn you down. When the time is right for you, you could tell him. The forgetfulness really sounds dangerous. Sorry if I am pushing you, but we need you in this world. You are the only you there is.
~GOD BLESS~
