Parents are in denial (it’s been years)
Hey yall, I have a question and just want to know what you all think… my parents have been in denial over my health since I was little when my mental health was the main problem. It’s been 3 years now since my gastroparesis was diagnosed. I lost a large amount I my weight and they congratulated me. Present time I have two feeding tubes and was on TPN for a year. They say “I’m not trying hard enough”, “I don’t want to get better” and “it’s all because of the weed and you just have to let it get out of your system (like 4-6 months)” (I use to keep me from being miserable in pain and nauseous, only at night and not a lot at all). They fully believe I’m the reason I’m sick and it will all fix itself if I just listen to my father about the weed. Mind you I’ve had this since I was a baby. Couldn’t even keep formula down. My father told me he’d rather die than have feeding tubes like me.
Do you guys have parents in denial? If so, how do i get them to understand?
Any advice is appreciated :)
