Hello

I answered your post about you leaving the site are you feeling better about staying now :-)

Sometimes anxiety can cause weight loss , as we burn food of quicker with some they may put weight on we are all different in which way it affects us

Have you spoken to your Doctor about been concerned , if they are ok with it then you have to believe them , the more you can relax , eat 3 meals a day and maybe get some of those food supplements from health stores you weight will come back to normal :-)

Speak with your Doctor they will reassure you :-)

Take Care x

Thank you but all my thoughts are on my stomach because I'm afraid I'll get sick. When I eat normal my stomach feels so full and sometimes I don't have an appetite because of anxiety and depression

This sounds like the reason you will be loosing weight , get checked out with the Doctor & hopefully they can reassure you that it is nothing serious like your anxiety will be trying to tell you :-) x

My weight has fluctuated over the years. Unfortunately the last three months has been very difficult anxiety wise, I have lost about 5 kg in six weeks, nausea and upset stomach disallows me to have an appetite. Once I get my anxiety under control my appetite comes back. Double check with your Dr. Also. Stay positive, I know it's difficult but try your best.
