i could cry

10th day of losing my appetite i could cry i don't know what's wrong with me , i used to eat and eat and eat

Do youhave any reason why? New medication? Very anxious? Pregnant? Unless you are losing lots of weight it's probably just a passing thing but of course as always it's best to check with your doctor. If there's anything you fancy eating...go for it! Xx

i have no idea tbh , im extremely anxious i know that, i don't think i could be pregnant and i started on fluoxetine 5 days ago so it can't be that :/ but my stomaches telling me i'm hungry but i just don't feel hungry or fancy anything whereas before i'd eat a whole cake to myself and 3 meals a day all i've had today is a banana & all i had yesterday was a porridge and 6 chicken nuggets xx

Fluoxetine side effect is definitely poor appetite for the first few weeks then everything settles down generally. Have you got the insert sheet from the meds? It might put your mind at rest.

[Charlottexo in reply to Sparkygirl7870]

yeahh i have somewhere byt i lost it oops 😩 but i don't think it would be that as i've only been taking them last 5 days but no appetite for 10 days inwas on phrochlorazapine and cinnerizine for a little while tho before

Same thing happened to me with Zoloft. My stomach was hungry but I couldn't eat. I have lost so much weight and it's annoying because I use to eat a lot. I am a foodie. Now I'm here stuck.

[Sparkygirl7870]

Oh i see. Are you losing a lot of weight?

[Charlottexo in reply to Sparkygirl7870]

think i've lost like 2 pounds but i've been drinking 2/3 litres of water a day aswell

[Hidden in reply to Charlottexo]

That's alot of water be careful you don't make things worse.

[Charlottexo in reply to Hidden]

isit ?😩 make what things worse?

[Hidden in reply to Charlottexo]

You will wash sodium away which can create tiredness, vomiting and muscle spasms etc. You should get a very small amount of sea salt, not table salt. Dissolve it in a warm glass of water and sipp it slowly throughout the day.

[Hidden in reply to Charlottexo]

Well you'll be ok now but at least you know for future times.

I feel the same way. Have not been eating well since January due to all this anxiety. I am forcing myself to eat but it's very difficult and I loved to eat as well I also have GI issues so that doesn't help. I might look into those Boost shakes just to get some calories into me. No wonder we don't want to eat when we feel so rotten. I am also on five million meds so I am sure that's contributing,
