I googled phobia of food. It’s a specific phobia that sounds exactly what I’ve been doing. Only eating a few safe foods. Freaking out over expiration dates even if it’s just a day old. I won’t eat things in the fridge that are open after 7 days even if the expiration date is ok. I also have issues with milk being ok. I cook my poultry and pork to the point of it being dry because I worry about tapeworms and other food poisoning. Although I know there’s some body image stuff going on as well, I feel like my main concern right now is that food just makes me anxious. And when I eat after going a long time I don’t feel better. I feel even more anxious.
