I also haven’t wanted to drink any coffee which is unusual for me because I typically drink black unsweetened coffee most of the day most days. Now I can barely get myself to take a sip and I feel horrible if I drink it. It’s really weird. The last time I felt such a lack of appetite was when my mom was actively dying from cancer and the stress that caused. Like I have my comfort foods in the cabinet and the thought of them makes me nauseous. I tried to force myself to eat a sweet potato today and it felt like I was gonna gag the entire time. Idk if it’s stress from work or lack of sleep or if I’m getting sick or what. It’s just highly unusual for me to have a lack of appetite to the extent of even the thought of food making me nauseous. Idk if this is good or bad. I mean I guess it will help me lose weight. But it’s highly uncomfortable feeling nauseous every time I try to eat.
Just a thought, obviously take it with whatever weight you wish to assign to it, but have you talked to your psychiatrist and or therapist about sleep strategies and or things like that? Also is the job stressing you out?
