I'm a 43 yr old white male. It started a few weeks ago.I can't eat. The thought Of food makes me sick. I'm not worried about my weight. I eat once every few days but a few bites.Ive been so sad and worried.Am I starving myself to have control over my life? I fucking just can't eat and I'm NEVER hungry.I've lost 10 pounds in the last week. I'm not doing this on purpose I just feel I don't need to eat anymore.I know I have to obviously but I have to force myself to just swallow one bite.I'm worried because I really feel ok with eating just one bite of food every few days.

    This could be a symptom of depression.

    Hey, you KNOW that's not normal! It's not only adolescent girls who have anorexia and it does sound as if that's what you have and you need to see a doctor urgently before you permanently damage your health.

    Why did this begin a few weeks ago? That would be a good idea to clarify but the medical and/or counselling help has to be the first step.

        You may have a serious form of cancer if you don't have the energy to eat AT ALL. You need to go to a doctor.

    You must be careful to avoid dehydration, and keep your electrolytes in balance.

    One piece of advice, make sure you're hydrated, dehydration can lead to a bad cycle of not eating, then not feeling hungry and continuing to be dehyrdated. Try taking food with water too but definitely see a doctor, it's rather an urgent issue.

    Get professional treatment for the anxiety and depression from which you no doubt suffer! Starving yourself will slow down your metabolism, and cause you to become weak and lose muscle mass.

    If you have a problem with solid food, there are a number of very healthy things you could drink. V8 juice for instance. Any unsweetened fruit juice. Soups.
    I sure hope you aren't driving, because you are going to pass out, sooner or later.

    I'm not anorexic.I just can't literally eat.I'm healthy,I KNOW I have to eat. But for some reason I can't . I just can't eat. It's so crazy I know.the smell,taste of food makes me sick.I can drink liquids but that's even hard. I can not eat ever again and I'll be ok. And I used to LOVE to eat. Its like I'm scared to eat.for no reason.

      The only thing you can do is go to a doctor to get to the root of the problem. You're only hurting yourself by not eating.
