Any ideas how to increase my appetite? All this anxiety has killed off any desire for food. Yes, I know I should try to eat small meals, but it's almost impossible. The thought of food gives me anxiety. Any ideas?

I too have suffered anxiety when it comes to eating. What part of it scares you though?
No fear really, just no desire....and then, of course, I worry like crazy not eating will kill me. OR I worry my loss of appetite is due to some deadly disease OR I worry that I am just crazy!
It will pass, I was like this for last 6 days,ok now. Try to eat soup.
Drink Ensure. When my anxiety gets so high that it affects my appetite, I drink Ensure and it actually helps pick your appetite back up as well
I'm in the same boat. Wish I could just not eat. Not hungry and then I worry about not eating enough, losing too much weight, etc etc. Causes more anxiety. I just end up forcing myself to eat. But it's not always healthy.
Not what you're looking for?
