Question

Is it just me or does anyone else have problems with not eating when stressed?

[abc1517]

I do. When under extreme stress, I don’t have an appetite at all.

[Cat26538 in reply to abc1517]

Like I’m starving but can’t eat.

[abc1517 in reply to Cat26538]

That’s the worst. I rarely get those hunger pains. This may be inappropriate but marijuana helps.

[Cat26538 in reply to abc1517]

I can’t do that. I’m getting drug tested for the next 6 months

Yes I've experienced this- when I'm really upset, anxious I have no appetite!!😖I just try make myself eat something I think might help like turkey for protein or few nuts like walnuts/pecans or make a protein shake with coconut/almond or rice milk and banana which good for mood! or a piece of good dark chocolate if I hav it & it sounds good? I know it's easier said than done😣💞but try find something that sounds good to you and may be comforting& help lift your mood!

I'm just the opposite. I feel like eating everything, gain weight and one more reason to be stressed out

[Marci123450 in reply to Juliana74]

Me too... the carbs is what I crave when stressed. Have gained too much weight in the past few months 😪😪😭

Yes. When I’m stressed just thinking about food can make me start feeling sick. And I normally love food. But when I get to overwhelmed with stress it’s the last thing I want.

I usually over eat when I feel down or bored. Get a bottle of mastic gum capsules
