TW : I don’t know what it could be so I’m just adding this in case

Im so hungry it hurts so bad..

But my body won’t let me eat, I kinda just blankly stare at food and wish it goes away so that I’m not burdened to put it in my mouth. I barely ate yesterday and probably won’t today, the weight Im losing is significant and Im starting to feel sick, not like “I need to tell a doctor” sick but more like “I can’t eat anything without gagging”. This probably has some name to it.

I ask to make meals a lot so I have a reason to myself, but then I get nervous and queasy just looking at it.

Yeah, I believe this should be told to a doctor. You are starving yourself, and since I’m not a licensed doctor, I can’t tell you everything, but definitely tell a doctor to be safe. No one wants you to starve.

I will whenever I get the chance to 😓

Okay, I’m sure if you schedule one and straight up say “I can’t eat without gagging, and have been losing weight” They’ll help you straight away.

I actually don’t really know if I’m lost weight, I just started to notice my ribs are becoming way more pronounced on my body.. I think that means I am but I honestly don’t know

Okay, lemme tell you, that means your body is eating the fat in your body because it’s not getting enough food. So yes, that will cause weight loss because of it.

Oh shoot

Im guessing that’s not good?

It’s not good.

#

So, schedule a doctor appointment quickly, because this is a serious issue.

I'm a bit late her, but I have episodes that are a bit similar.. For me personally it's most of the time due to intense stress and I feel like it's too hard to eat/swallow. It's like my mind is being repulsed by food, because "I need to be ready to fight", even though there's no immediate threat of a fight or anything at all.

Definitely talk to a doctor about it, as said before. Maybe also try using drink meals, as they sometimes help and it doesn't feel as much like food, you know?

Please regularly check your pulse. If you're noticing that minor activities increase it to 130 or above, see a medical professional asap. Especially if it's accompanied by shortness of breath, visual issues, possibly fainting or also muscle loss.

hope you're feeling better soon /gen

Alright, update! : It’s a problem with my stomach I had like a few years ago where my stomach just refuses food because of how nauseous it makes me! But now I’m going back on some meds that stop it from getting upset! : )

It’s nothing like too concerning so I should be fine, thank you for the advice!
