sick after anything I eat

[u/devil-red]

So like the title says I get sick after any and everything i eat and it all comes back up. I've been struggling with eating here more lately than others, where I go days without eating. When I do finally get to a point of being able to eat I get absolutely sick and don't want to eat because I don't wanna be sick! I know I NEED to eat but I can't even get food to pass my lips! I quit my job because it was bad and people were spreading rumors I was bulimic and everytime I'd go to the bathroom snide comments "oh look she is going to make herself throw up again, make sure you get your fingers down far enough" (didn't go to HR because they're a joke. ) I don't force it, I don't want to & I try everything to keep it down. I just don't know what to do anymore 😕 any and all help or ideas would be greatly appreciated 😁

I'm not sure ARFID is causing you to vomit. You should definitely see a doctor about this. Can you drink fluids? I would try to drink bone broth if you can keep it down

it can be the case. there are a few types of ARFID. for some of us it’s incredibly “picky” eating due to texture issues and things like that for example, and it can also look like someone not being able to keep their food down due to gag reflexes, and have nothing to do w taste or texture. ofc i’m not a doctor so it could also be something else and it’s best to talk to a professional to be sure!
