My depression has become a full blown eating disorder

I don't remember when it started, but I noticed that I'm having reluctance towards food now. I know I need to eat so I can take my meds. I used to love food very much and I still do think about what I'd like to eat at every meal time but when it comes to actually eat it, I'd feel disgust and it makes me nauseated. And if I forced myself to eat, I'd struggle to keep it down to the point I can't function right.

Does anyone have the same experience? How do I overcome this?

It’s so hard. You have to retrain your stomach and your mind. And the battle is never fully over. I still fight it today. Light and love.

@DarkHeaven it's one thing after another and the only way to do it is to move forward. May we both have the strength to overcome this.

Ps : love the Light and love. ♥

@DarkHeaven thank you so much for sharing this. I don't know how to put all that I'm feeling right now into words atm. All that comes out right now are tears of anger, pain, disappointment, sadness. It's like I'm in mourning of part of myself that I've lost. But your post gives me hope.

@mistfox It’s the stages of grief. Before we can build anew, we must first grieve what’s been lost. Be patient with yourself. You deserve that. Light & love.

@DarkHeaven thank you for reminding me of that. I now realised that I'm can be very harsh and hard on myself that I forgot to be kind to myself too.
