Anorexia nervosa: Sorry to hear of your difficulties. Even though one person may appear more visibly ill, anorexia nervosa generally involves the entire family. Ongoing interpersonal conflicts can be expressed around food and other family activities. It sounds like there are significant issues between you & your daughter, and perhaps some family therapy sessions may be of use to all of you. Good luck.
