      hi kat! have you ever tried a mild anxiety medication like hydroxizine? this is often prescribed for people who struggle with anxiety around eating and usually take it before a meal/snack or sometimes after if that’s when it can be difficult. Not sure if that’s what you meant by symptoms. if you mean physical symptoms, another medication i’ve taken that was helpful is called reglan. this helped with nausea and early fullness when eating usually in the beginning of treatment cycles. it was definitely helpful and you take it about 30 mins before each meal.
