Проблемы с едой и тревога
Does anyone on here have an eating disorder or have some knowledge of them? I think I’ve battled one my entire life but IDk.
When I was younger I went through different things like I would spit my food into a napkin so I didn’t swallow it and I also went through situations where I binge ate. In my adulthood I’ve battled anxiety with food. I can go all day and only eat once or not at all. food gives me a lot of anxiety and I hate the way it makes me feel, I hate how most of it taste. I’ve been trying to eat more, like today I picked up something for myself to eat and now that i’ve eaten, i hate how i’m feeling. I get anxiety just thinking about what to eat or cook. My anxiety got worse after my mom died, I would cook for her and the kids so I pushed through but now it’s just bad. I didn’t think anyone noticed how little I ate until my friend and kids mentioned it. I spoke to my primary and she told me I’m putting my body into starvation mode. She suggested I eat small meals multiple times and take vitamins for what i’m lacking but it’s not that easy. I’ve been like this for years so idk if I can just change it.

Have you thought about therapy? ( If you're not already going). Also dieticians can really help you understand if you talk to them and be honest about your struggles etc. They can even recommend other options if it is something more than just eating food so to speak.

I second therapy if you havent tried. They can really help you figure out the cause of this, and help you get back on track. I’m certainly no expert, but that sounds like disordered eating to me.

Me. I agree with speaking to a dietician. I was inpatient for a bit in Maryland.

Therapy helped me but it's always a struggle and something I need to really keep an eye on
