last night I was able to eat bread and chicken noodle soup and I felt better. I’m just nervous I’ll eat something and it’ll make me go to the bathroom. I was doing so much better with my anxiety and then I had this setback two nights ago where I was sick. I don’t know when I should go back to eating normally. I don’t want to aggravate my stomach. I feel a little nauseous this morning but I think I’m hungry.

might be better
Just keep eating bland food. Soup is good. Bread is good. Applesauce. Jello. And drink water. Don't let yourself get dehydrated.
Try a BRAT diet to settle the GI issues. Bananas, Rice, Apple Sauce, and Toast. Be sure to sip on water throughout the day. Celebrate the small victories. Yesterday you were able to eat! It's small, but something to hold onto until you are back to eating regularly again.

As I have lovingly told you it pains me so very deeply to see you post your ongoing struggles. I ran my own businesses and a non profit before falling into a abyss of anxiety and depression, soI tend to be a very problem-solving and solutions oriented person.
Is there anyway you can share what your diagnosis is? What you’ve tried to do towards that diagnosis and what you think might be more solutions to your ongoing anxiety and and other such issues you and your providers might have.
There are so many excellent problem-solving people on this site that maybe we could just help you come up with some kind of answer that will help alleviate many of your symptoms.
I don’t know, if that is going to help or not, how could I. But I feel for you so greatly. I’m an empathetic type and I’m literally in pain watching your pain, so please help me lessen my pain by letting us help you try to find solutions if it all possible.
Much love
Craig
