If people say you are doing much better, it could mean they are happy for you. It does not mean they are more willing to accept you now. I also think it is very scary to start to do better; it can be very unsettling, but it also means you must be working very hard at changing. It can be like a death so to speak to lose the "old me," so to speak. The old may feel more comfortable even if it also feels awful. The new can be very unsettling and scary. I don't know if I am making any sense, but this has been my experience.
