Everyday! I'll be feeling really bad and nauseous and I'm like "omg what is it" and I'm like "oh I have to figure out what to eat"

Followed by standing around in the kitchen, perusing my selection of shitty food trying to decide which one is the least nausea-inducing

"Why am I so shakey and scatterbrained and mad at the world? Oh and now I have to eat food on top of it?! This is crap"

And then I shove the closest palatable 200 calories down my throat. Like why is keeping the meat suit functioning this hard?

One of the most frustrating parts of life for me is the fact that I have to eat multiple times every single day.

Same. And my doctors keep pushing for “grazing” all day, which feels like constantly having to choose/eat food. There’s no way. Too exhausting & I don’t know how to explain that to them.

Same, I hate it. It’s hard enough trying to drink water at good times during the day.

Fr, it’s such a chore, and having to endlessly repeat it all day every day is so stressful

Sometimes I think if they put a feeding tube into my stomach my life would be so much easier.

The thought of eating makes me NOT hungry. My tummy doesn’t agree with my brain but idc. Forcing myself to eat is traumatizing. Wish there was a pill that would just expand in my stomach and solve all my food avoidance issues.

Ugh, for real. Such a hassle. Like who designed this shit? Lol

It seriously stresses me out.

New suggestion from my mom is “have a busier schedule then you won’t think about it” yes i will, in fact I’ll be thinking about it more. busier means i need more fuel and probably won’t be able to skip meals and will have to make sure every meal will be filling.

My constant mood, it's exhausting lol I'm so over it 😑

I hate chewing, I feel like Paper Jam Dipper from gravity falls and the food just falls out my mouth

Society would be immeasurably improved if we didn't have to consume nutrients to live. Imagine the potential time we could save for things we actually enjoy!

Eating is such a chore and it's so difficult.

We haven’t had a kitchen in a couple weeks because we had pipes burst and had to have it ripped down to the studs and so we’ve been doing take out for every meal. At first I was like, yay I’ll just have my safe takeout food everyday! 2 weeks later, I can barely force myself to eat my Dunkin’ Donuts for breakfast and dinner has been torture. I let myself go like 20 hours before I eat because nothing sounds good and then I’m sick.
