I ate a piece of pizza

[Ceaser_Leone]

So I ate a piece of pizza and this anxiety was up and I thought I would vomit and it scared me so bad, I began to think I made a mistake and that I would pay for it, my mouth got real dry and I was drinking water, even now im telling my mind that I will sleep tonight and wake up refreshed. if feels like a ring is around my head right now and my abdomen is tight just below my sternum and that was causing this anxiety to get more excited. what are some ways to prevent this from happening? I want to and i have told my mind and my body that I am so much stronger than this and I Control it, it does not control me. But I realize i need support to get thru this, how can i relax enough to go to sleep tonight with no fear of vomiting or anything negative? I am open for suggestions please

Hi, are you on any medication for your anxiety? You have an obsession about food, it seems on the anxiety spectrum, like OCD.

No im not and I never thought about that? how does that work?

[Hidden in reply to Ceaser_Leone]

Talk with your doctor or a psychiatrist and they can prescribe you something either an antidepressant, anti anxiety medication or something more targeted for OCD like Luvox. I have obsessive thoughts about health among other things and I take Lexapro which has helped a lot. I don’t have near the obsessions anymore. I think your issue is less about food itself and more about obsession due to anxiety.

I can see that

I agree with Lynnalice.

I also think some of your diet should change. No offense meant, but with food issues you should try some lighter foods, and smaller portions. Just a thought.

i will be glad when I can eat and my mind not tell me that it will make me sick, that is the biggest problem for me right now, the fear

When my anxiety is up I have s very difficult time eating.

Are you in therapy? This just seems like such an extreme case. You must be losing a lot of weight?
