It’s definitely a reason why you lost weight, anxiety can make you loose appetite and just cause you to worry so much. I used to be like that. But you just have to not let anxiety win because at the end of the day anxiety is just playing with your mind and you must not let it win!❤️

Yes I would think so! My weight has been down mostly because i’ve been stressed, I can never eat when i’m stressed, I lose my appetite and have a pit in my stomach

No I’ve just lost 10 unneeded pounds quickly.

Marijuana helps me very much with this, but I have to use a low dose of 80-100% indica so it doesn't cause me more anxiety. It is my go to medicine when I stop eating and start losing a bunch of weight. Just CBD oil might help some if you don't want to feel "high", but indica strains like "Granddaddy Purple" or "Amnesia Haze" etc generally help people with anxiety, stress and depression. Might even put you to sleep. And you don't have to smoke it. In fact edibles are available and have a more subtle effect and last longer anyways. You may not be hungry now, but a little corner of a brownie will help relax you, and get your appetite back. I'm not a pot pusher, but it legitimately does help me with this. Now I just must stop, because I'm 25lbs over weight after putting back on 65lbs in 4 months. Also, I lost that 40lbs in one month because I just didn't have an appetite and stopped eating. Not to sound dramatic, but I feel like it saved my life. Once you begin to starve yourself and you become malnourished, it can take quite awhile to put it back on. Even my fingernails and hair stopped growing. It was pretty scary. I feel much healthier now.
