Good ol' ARFID (Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder) for me. It's cyclical for me, and when it rears its ugly head I'll basically stop eating for a week or two. Normal meals turn into protein shakes since my throat will refuse to swallow normal food.

I've never heard of it, that sounds like a huge pain in the ass.

I had not had an issue in over a year. All of a sudden, I lost my appetite. Since then, on most days, I struggle to make myself eat. I’ve been at the “protein shakes are good enough, I guess” stage for about a month now.

I’ve lost so much weight, that everyone around me is telling me how concerned they are. It’s been over 2 months now. It’s not a good feeling, both physically and mentally.

People who know, know.
