I have lost a lot of weight through anxiety. Just dont have an appetite so I force myself to eat. Always glad when I've finished eating.

I had to convert stones to lbs and that does seem like a lot. A doctor's appointment may be warranted to relieve your worry. He may give you a supplement drink to help you. Wishing you well.

When I first started with aniexty I lost a massibe amount of weight in a short space of time. I've gradually gained it back. Still feel like shit everyday with all my pains etc but just trying to deal with now and think I'm still here so all can't be that bad at the moment.

I can't eat when i'm anxious. My appetite becomes non existent.

Not what you're looking for?
