Hello Alex, I have never dealt with an eating disorder... however, when I first started dealing with anxiety it was while I had a really bad stomach flu. For a week I was afraid of eating, because I did not want to feel sick. I was on a liquid diet for a little over a week and lost weight because of it, my energy was low and I felt weak. After the flu began to pass, I was hesitant on what I ate. I put myself on an eating schedule to ensure I was getting the proper nutrients and I put myself on a bland diet as I was also dealing with some digestive issues. Over time it got better and I slowly introduced more food. Sometimes it's just mind over matter, I have a friend who has a terrible autoimmune disorder and literally cannot eat. I spoke to him about my concerns and after seeing how much he wishes he could eat anything other than protein powder, I began to feel like I am fortunate to be able to eat and should enjoy it.

I'm not sure to what extent your eating problems are or what is causing you to throw up. If you haven't seen a doctor you should. But take care of yourself, try and eat something - even if it is just protein powder and water or a fruit smoothie to keep yourself nourished.
