So anxious I can't eat??

This happened to me back when I was 13. I can't keep food down & I can't sleep!!! What does anyone with anxiety suggest? I feel so nauseous. I only feel anxious when I'm doing good with my weight. I thought it would be the other way around!

  • I had this last summer, an incident happened and I couldn't eat or sleep for 2 months. I lost a lot of weight, but as soon as the anxiety passed I piled it back on!

    Have you tried any relaxation techniques? Like yoga and meditation?

    It may be worth going to a counsellor to work out what it is that makes you anxious especially regarding your weight! I know counsellors are expensive, but if they help you over come your issue you will never never regret spending the money on it.

    Also try Bach's rescue remedy - works wonders to calm me down again!
