Loosing my appetite for everything except one type of food

this happens to me so much i hope you know you are not alone, i don’t know why it happens but some days i can’t bring myself to eat anything unless it’s something very specific

Yes. I loose my appetite for lots of food but I will constantly want spaghetti

yup! non-dairy vanilla yogurt with pb powder and chocolate chips mixed in. literally ate it 2-3x a day for days at a time because nothing else seemed appetizing. eventually i come out of it, but dont force yourself to, give yourself love and allowance in the meantime!

I deal with something similar except its more that the idea of anything that’s not green grapes will make me feel dirty and sick. I just feel refreshed and “clean” when I’m eating grapes but I can’t get myself to eat anything else. One thing that sorta help me was starting with small portions of something similar to grapes but a little different and just taking it really slow with first smelling it and eventually I get to the point I can even eat meats. It’s weird because I’ll wake up one day and do it just fine but then I’ll wake up the next and it resets. Drinks really help with this too. Drinking water after eating something different still help me feel refreshed and maybe for you drinking something sweet might help fill that craving. This is just my experience but I hope it goes well for you!!

I'm the same. I don't have a appetite really. I've gone a week without eating before I don't have a ed or anything. I like sweet stuff I do like sweet cereal at dinner I usually do a boost smoothie with frozen fruit and yogurt to get calories my door recommended the boost because I have trouble eating/getting calories. I have to have alot of calories with one of my meds I take at night

Oh that’s surprisingly similar to my taste! Granola is the one food that I go to when nothing else seems edible. If I can’t even eat that then I know things are bad lol. Granola and cereals are not the worst food to turn to because they tend to be enriched with vitamins. But eating any food is better than nothing. Raising the dose on my Sertraline made it worse for a short period of time, so sometimes I’d just get a few spoonfuls of ice cream which really helped. If there’s nothing nutrient dense you can eat at the moment, just try to get some calories. What foods do you normally go to? I could use some ideas too. You can look into something with nuts in it for more protein and calories, like trail mix or chocolate coated. I also like to eat chips with chocolate. The chocolate can be less sugar more cocoa which is considered slightly healthy too lol

Lucky you. My appetite is almost non existent. I maybe eat a meal a day if I'm lucky. There have been times I haven't eaten anything for a day. Sad part, no Dr knows why or seems very concerned about it

I go for long periods of time where all I can eat is gram crackers.

I think I have...the only time that really sticks in my head at the moment is after a panic attack/mental breakdown I couldn't eat anything other than Cheerios for a few days. Seriously, any other food smell made me sick. I think as long as you're eating or getting some sort of sustainable goodness in your body (even just staying hydrated), you should be doing fine. I'm not saying force yourself to eat, but if you know you are going to need extra energy for the day, a little snack wouldn't hurt.

I thought i was the only one that struggled with this (before i developed an Ed but still do struggle with this)

Yes currently eating the same cereal for dinner that I ate for breakfast because its all that sounds good. Fed is best. Even if its the same thing every day for a while.
