I had a very good day at work, i ate a 10 piece nugget around 12 this afternoon, i hadnt ate since then, around 10pm my cousin called me to get a plate and on the way to their house I started having anxiety and the attack lasted for at least 1 hour or so I just made it home and im getting ready to eat because i been so nauseous but i know its because i havent ate. I have to go to work in the morning an i dont have the gas to get their comfortably and it bothers me, I have food but nothing to drink, Im remaining positive but it is real hard. Any suggestions?

Hi, I looked through some of your older posts and saw that another member advised that you eat more frequently and small meals. I think that’s great advice. You are not eating enough and definitely should not go more than a few hours without a snack. Your blood sugar levels are crashing and surging the way you are eating. Having some honey and a banana in the morning, or a hard boiled egg and a banana will keep you for a few hours. Then you need a healthy snack, some almonds or peanut butter and celery, then a light lunch, chicken and a salad and another snack, yogurt and then dinner, meat and potatoes something like that. The average person needs 1700 calories per day, I think you are only eating about 500? The bodily symptoms you feel can be because of restricting your food intake. You also need to drink a lot of water. Why are you restricting your eating so much?

The fear of nausea and vomiting is what scares me, that's why I eat so little. I was never like this before this just happened all of a sudden, I know its a mental issue but its so hard to fight it at times because my mind tells me if I eat Im gonna be sick, today for example I ate a a blueberry muffin, a 10 piece nugget and a bag of popcorn .I know once i get some more checks rolling in I want to improve my eating habits and I really want to regain my appetite, what can i do to fix it?

My stomach bothers me and the feeling of vomiting sends me through the roof when the anxiety acts up but i never vomit. What can I do? the doctor gave me some bentyl for ibs symptoms to take as needed

Well a big part of this is psychological but I keep peppermint candies handy and they help a lot with nausea. Peppermint tea and peppermint candy are both good as long as they have peppermint oil
