Textures and taste being too much sometimes does it for me. I'm severely underweight naturally, so not eating isn't something I can afford. I set timers and if I eat I give myself a "reward" for doing it. But if it really is too much sensory-wise, dry cereal it is.

Yes. Sometimes you just can't handle any more sensory input or have no energy or....basically either near a burn out, melt down, or shut down. Or already in one.

Yes. I have not eaten for so long I've gotten pains in my chest. To avoid that now I usually have a protein drink so my body has something.

I started drinking smoothies yesterday as I almost had a meltdown about not wanting to eat
