Please help me.

Hello, I was hoping that somebody could help me with this problem. I am 17 years old. The username is hidden for confidentiality reasons.

Let me start with my history -- as a child I had GERD for many years, burst appendix, stomach volvulus, chronic cystic acne, IBS. The last 2 are ongoing. I have been eating a wholefood diet - raw milk, grass fed beef etc for about 6 months now. I decided to start SCD 12 days ago, and my family have not stopped criticizing. I made some homemade bone broth and it chucked away when I was upstairs. My mom had a breakdown crying saying why are you eating like this, you are harming yourself. My fridge full of offal and grass fed beef got turned off last night, I woke up with all the meat gone off and inedible so I had to eat bananas all morning whilst I defrosted some beef steaks from the freezer. My sister has a closed minded 'dietetic' friend who says this diet is very unhealthy and all the family have become brainwashed. I have tried sitting down and explaining it but nobody listens saying 'there is a lot of quackery on the internet'. Saying I need to go to the doctors. I haven't been to the doctors or dentist since I was referred by a doctor to a dermatologist who tried to put me on accutane for acne. I refused. My mom has read many of my books about high fat diets being optimum, etc but will not let me do this. She ran to the doctors and the doctor said it wasn't healthy.

I am stuck here. Does anybody have any advice for me? I would love to be able to fix my gut so that I can gain weight, not suffer from GERD, IBS and Acne again before going to university in a years time.

Thank you very much :) Tweet
