I've always had a bad relationship with food ie scared to eat certain things because it might make me sick. I have a massive phobia about vomiting. I've had no trumantic events around this but always have had a phobia of it since I was little. I've suffered anxiety and depression since I was 11years old. Been on the same meds till now. And they have always worked. But now I'm scared to eat. I've lost over 10kg in 2 months. I'm scared to go out. I'm scared of everything. I'm normally so socal and nothing bothers me. I'm seeing a phyc tomorrow and under docs care. But has anyone else ever had such a dear.. a fear of eating. ? <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":disappointed_face:">😞</span> Sun, 08 Nov 2020 02:59:20 GMT https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/anxiety/i-just-want-to-feel-like-me-again/m-p/513153#M42871 MissLDM 2020-11-08T02:59:20Z https://forums.beyondblue.org.au/t5/anxiety/i-just-want-to-feel-like-me-again/m-p/513154#M42872 <P>hi,</P> <P>I'll admit I'm not an expert in this but here's my advice.</P> <UL> <LI>Start by eating some of the foods that are easier to eat with some harder ones.</LI> <LI>Don't stop eating even though you are scared you need food</LI> <LI>Talk to someone. someone you trust</LI> <LI>Remember, you're not the only one with cibophobia. many people all over the world have it</LI> <LI>Just be calm</LI> </UL> <P>I hope you found this helpful.
