Disordered Eating
i feel sick everytime i eat. but im not starving myself. i haven’t been eating real meals for months. i eat once a day if that. only because everytime i eat i feel like i need to vomit.
I'm sorry to hear eating has been so difficult for you over the last few months. It makes sense it's been hard to have real meals if you feel nauseous whenever you eat. Have you been able to let your caregiver(s) know about the changes in your appetite? Not being able to eat as much our bodies needs can have an impact on our health and functioning during the day. Another important consideration is your current level of stress and anxiety, as those can affect our appetite and potentially cause stomach issues. Your caregiver may be able to schedule a doctor's visit to find out if there are any underlying issues causing your nausea. If you'd like to talk more about this, you can call/text us 24/7 at 888-222-2228. Good luck!
It sounds like you're going through a really tough time right now, and I'm sorry to hear that you're feeling this way. It's important to prioritize your health and well-being. Feeling sick every time you eat can be really distressing, and it might be a sign that your body is struggling with the changes in your eating habits.
I encourage you to reach out to a healthcare professional or a therapist who specializes in eating disorders. They can provide you with the support and guidance you need. It's crucial to address these feelings and find a way to nourish your body in a healthy way. You deserve to feel good about eating and to have a positive relationship with food.
Remember, you're not alone in this—there are people who care and want to help you. Take small steps toward recovery, and be gentle with yourself. You’ve got this!
my eating has got a lot to do with my depression. doing these simple tasks normal people do everyday isn’t easy for me. rolling out of bed, taking a shower, eating, or going to see friends. i don’t like staying at my own house because it’s toxic. i’m not able to talk about how i feel when im home. i can’t tell them how i feel. which i partially already did, i asked for help, im getting started on therapy. it going to take time but im willing to try atleast.
This is a safe space to share what's on your mind and to get support from real people.
