definitely go to someone else who is more likely to take you seriously!. this ultimatum thing with the smoking won't work!. my parents have always smoked and I tried everything to get my mom to stop smoking and saying that you're not going to eat most likely won't work because she won't take you seriously!. good luckWww@Answer-Health@Com
i'm so sorry!. i have eating problems, and telling parents is so, so, so hard!. you have been VERY BRAVE just to do it, i'm proud of you!.
i'm just going to be honest, and you may not like me saying this, but your mother sounds mean!. you should try to find a trusted friend or adult (from school, church, a friend's parent, a relative, etc!.) and tell them!. don't be ashamed to ask for help, if people reject you it is because they are weak, not you!.
you may want to consider confronting her!. even if she laughs, tell her that she hurt your feelings, and you think it is wrong that she laughs, and you wish you could trust her!.
i wish i could help you!. i'm rooting for you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

that's not the way to solve your problems
and you can't force yourself to have an eating disorder - that's just not right, and you're taking years off your life
if you want your mom to try and stop smoking ask a question saying "how do i get my mom to stop smoking"
because honestly, this isn't the answer!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Oh darling!. I am so, so sorry!. Seriously!. That is seriously insensitive!. It must have taken a lot of courage to tell her!.
Do you have anyone else you can talk to!? Another relative!? A teacher!?
If not, you can always call your doctor!. It will take a while to get the treatment you need, but if your mother isn't supporting you, you need to take initiative for your health!.
I'm so sorry!. I really am!. What a horrible thing for her to do!. If you want to email me, you can!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Wow firstly I am very sorry that your mother laughed at you!. I think she is just trying to take "the easy way out"!. Secondly that was VERY VERY BRAVE! bravooo girl! I think maybe you should calm ddown (deep breaths) and then when your nice and close to calm you should try talking to your mother again and tell her how very serious you are!.
These things are very serious and help is the best thing!. If you mother still refuses to believe you maybe you should go to another adult or even a friend that you trust!. You're not in this along and you can change if thats what you want!.
Good luck girl!! You're very very brave and you can do it!! :)Www@Answer-Health@Com
