Normally, I'm an emotional eater. Food makes me feel good and pushes away all kinds of anxiety, depression, and more.

But last night and today, I have no appetite. The thought of food makes me feel ill.

It certainly won't hurt me to eat very little for a couple of days, and it's kind of fascinating. But it's like my body feels this deeply, in a different way than my usual personal struggles.

Just had some veggie pho. It's what I usually eat when I'm sick. It felt good to get some food in my belly.

I'm considering just giving up eating in favor of death. It's better than living in a dictatorship.

@tyghebright
This makes sense to me. I have literally felt nauseous since around midnight.

@tyghebright

I ate because I knew I should. But I'm with you in the oddly not hungry space.

@tyghebright
Yeah, same. Stress makes me eat, mourning steals my appetite. 🫂

@tyghebright
I've been feeling the same way, but thought it was just me. I made dinner last night, then put it in the fridge. It's been a shock for all of us, I guess it's to be expected. Hang in there! ❤️

@tyghebright
Stress finds different ways to manifest. You have good self-awareness and that helps moving forward with wisdom and strength. Sending hugs.

@tyghebright yeah thats the way i feel and i always get comfort from food
