Ever since Monday my therapist has called me a few times to check up on me. He called tonight and I told him that I haven't ate (barely) since Sunday night. He is viewing it as a potential self harm, even though I'm just stressed and have no appetite. Plus with ulcers/gastritis, most things I eat lately cause pain. Since sunday night ivhad 2 pops, a coffee, a bit of macaroni and a small slice of pizza. I know it's not much, but I'm worried that if I don't eat much tomorrow by our session he'll want to do something. I don't know...stupid anxiery talking.

I think it's definitely an issue with me... Sometimes i hold back from eating because it either makes me feel better to be lightheaded (similar to feeling drunk), because i feel fat or guilty, full of shame (i dont need to lose weight, I weight around 95 pounds). I think it's important for you to eat though, even though you don't have a good appetite. I've starting buying special k protein shakes, they taste really good and are not heavy, perfect for when I dont want to eat.

Weight is an issue for me, and I've lost 15-17 lbs since July but partly because I got off a medication for endometriosis and I'm on meds finally for hypothyroid.
I just have no appetite because of the stress, and I don't want to be in pain. I'll try to eat something because I don't this being made into something it's not. |

I know what you mean girl. Eat even though you have no appetite. Youre body needs it, and your body controls your mind to some extent. Im sorry youre having such a hard time. Life sucks, especially when youre dealing with mental stuff. Its so hard to eat, but one bite is better than none.

Thanks. I have been trying to drink something because it's easier than eating. Which is kind of ironic because I'm usually a stress eater.
