View Full Version : Help! Can't Eat
Hi Everyone, I came across this website by chance & have found it very helpful in understanding some of the symptoms/problems I'm having. I was recently diagnosed with overactive Thyroid problems & understand that anxiety is a symptom of this but I'm having real problems eating. I can't face cooking, the smell of food is making me vomit. How can I overcome this as it's making me really ill?
Same here! No appetite and really dry mouth. Wanting to retch when I have a mouthful. I don't know about a relation between eating and thyroids but I can imagine the anxiety is just as likely to make you like that. I am trying to eat little and often. Eat meals over a long period of time, even if they are going cold.
If you are actually vomiting mind, maye you have a tummy bug. How long has this been happening?

Ooh just wanted to add, I've found soup to be good as it's easy to get in and nourishing and you will feel hungrier later.
Thanks PanchoGoz.
I've been struggling with my appetite since last week & forcing as much food down as possible, am also trying soups. I think it's the thyroid over activity causing the anxiety so is related indirectly; have an appointment with Endocrynolgist 2nd April so they should be able to stabilise it better & anxiety levels will hopefully subside, but am really struggling at the moment!
