My daughter has come out to me, which is great. It wasn’t a surprise and I’m glad she finally feels safe to do so. She hasn’t come out to her Dad, and has made me promise not to tell him. He’s devastated that she doesn’t trust him. (Obviously, it’s not an issue for either of us, or between us, but he’s sad about it. I’m sure she will open up in time.) I’m worried now that suddenly she’s having issues eating. She claims that it’s anxiety-related nausea, but I am worried that it may be turning into an eating disorder. She stares longingly at her food after taking a few bites and pushing it away. I am going to email her counsellor. Is this a common theme?
