Hi

For the past week, I have been getting about 3 hours of sleep, aside from one day where I stayed awake for the full 24 hours. I’ve also not been eating. It went from one meal a day to barely a nibble.

I don’t know why I can’t eat. I’m hungry but when I see the food in front of me I feel sick to eat it, I feel like I’m going to throw it up - a feeling of it’s hard to keep down. I don’t know how to eat, because I am really hungry but I feel so underweight that I might slip away..

Honestly, I have not been feeling so great might be a bit depressed. My sister moved out and promised nothing would change, but things already have; she’s more distant, she spends more time socialising with the family then she would with me. Things are just not the same anymore. And it’s breaking me. I understand her reasons for the move, I just miss her I guess. Ive always been attached to her since a kid - would follow her endlessly. But now, I feel so alone and I needed her today, called her several times but she didn’t answer. It’s as if I’m losing her and that’s the worst feeling I’ve ever felt. Guess I have severe attachment issues.

I just needed to let it all out, thank you whoever reads this x

Hi Kiku,

I am sorry you are feeling this way. Sorry you are missing your sister. My sister went no-contact with our narcissic family over 20 years ago. I haven't seen her since. It is so hard. It is a small help to know that she is happy. As for eating, I have a small option for you. This same sister was in a terrible accident and had her jaw wired shut. She could use a straw. Her doctor told her to drink milkshakes. So, you could drink your calories and your nutrients. There are lots of ''green drinks'' out there with lots of nutrients. So, load up your water bottle and sip on it through out the day.

my opinion is you cant control how people to behave.You can convey your expection or emotion.But if they are like as you written above,people though your sibling may neglect it.But here you to accept the fact and try to stand on your own,start to belive yourself.In our philosophy it is firmly believed that you are sculptor of your own life.so on your own,though slowly, try to come out of this and try to eat things as you like.surely you will come out
