Hi FreedomButterfly90 I think you would benefit from seeing a general practitioner, or a dietitian.

chicken broth is very nutritious because it has protein in the chicken, vitamins/minerals in the veg and has either a creamy broth packed with dairy/calcium or a flour thickened broth with carbs to compliment those in the potatoes!
chicken noodle soup is higher in calories but had more carbs too, both are good for gentle introduction for food in your tummy, also having lost weight it may be to build your body back up to an acceptable weight. they probably suggested chicken rather than beef or whatever because it is easier to digest.

my body wont accept anything but bagel with honey and butter ,anything else gives me intense nausea after my od on tues now thurs .

ANd my clinic says if im improving then i dont to call or if bad go to er sighs , i keep trying to get answers but they just keep saying i should not call to much and report also ughhhh .

""I am so depressed and upset and both my ACT team of professionals don't or are not sure how to help or support and my clinic does not ethier ,and my clinic coordinator and doc also seem burnt out and dont like receiving numerous calls when im trying to get answers or support, and possibly my act team.

I feel like giving up but my alters keep wanting me to keep trying and reaching out but look where that has got me nowhere ,what can i do to repair clinical relationship and medical with my doctor and the ACT professional team members , what can they do or what can i tell them they keep asking but i have no idea , im sad and upset and i feel like talks go nowhere with my team members and last call to my clinic and with clinical medical coordinator sound frustrated and sorta annoyed and rushed conversation saying they would be telling me the same info and that the psychiatrist would know more.

Makes me want to overdose badly and not tell anyone or drink just urges but strong.""

maybe write them a letter rather than call, then they can answer when they have time. calling may be diverting their attention away from other things they have to do, their bosses may be giving them grief about time management or missed targets. Also once you write the questions down on paper or email they should have a duty to respond/answer them as they can not deny being asked the question as they do not know whether you have a copy of you letter or not!
your alters want you to keep trying for a reason, you ma not be able to see the reason just yet and may not realise it until after the event but there is definitely a reason for your being here, if there wasn't your last od would have worked. i tried a few times and in the end gave up trying because there was something keeping me here, i didn't know what until a few years later when i held the hand of an elderly neighbour as she passed away then i realised that was the reason my od attempts had failed. i have other reasons for being now and will always try and make sure i have a reason, but if not i trust there is one that i have just not discovered yet.

But i just holding on to a strand it feels .no one cares or even wants to try to help (like my clinic not wanting me calling so much )they just severed it by my coordinator saying that and tone of voice ,partly want to sh or such cause of that .

I hate my life i hate me

If I were you I would visit gastroenterologist or any other specialist aside psychiatrist . Why am I saying this?

Well for different reasons (overeating mostly) I was having this persistent nausea. I could only eat very small amounts of certain foods. I got nauseated even by water. So it turns out that I did have some stomach problems that caused this. Gradually with pills and treatment now I'm able to eat most foods.

So please don't give up and don't hate yourself! Quite the contrary. Think about what you like in yourself and love yourself because this is how you start. I'm sure that it's hard, but just think about the things you like in yourself. Concentrate about them.

And really check this stomach issue because you might have some problems there that make you feel this way.

I hope that everything works out!

Don't know why or how, but I had mentioned drinking lemonade during one of my pregnancies and she said, oh good, that's good for nausea. And, I do, personally drink it, when feeling queasy and find it of benefit.
