[quote=Anonymous]I feel for you, OP. I have struggled with completely losing my appetite during times of stress and anxiety. I grew up in a chaotic household with an alcoholic parent. Have you been diagnosed with anxiety and or depression? I ask because I got this diagnosis later in life (in my 30s) and finally made measurable strides in my mental health (and eating normally and gaining/maintaining a healthy weight) once I was prescribed an SSRI. Also, likely due to my low weight and inadequate intake, I was diagnosed at 48 with osteoporosis. I have the bones of an elderly woman. I urge you to get a painless Dexa scan to check on your bone density. My untreated anxiety (and per my doctor, the constant flood of adrenaline) caused me to become alarmingly thin and like you, I’d drop weight way too quickly. [/quote]
