Extremely frustrated...


17 years ago 0 477 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
Hi Koneko,
Lately I get nausea after I go eat out where there are a lot of people in the restaurant. It frustrates me because THE thing you do when you go out with friends/family is go eat. And I did like to eat before too, but now, I'm always canceling on friends because I don't want to go eat. I can't even go eat with my family. I also get scared at what kinds of chemicals are in the food that causes me to get nausea. I just want to be carefree again.

I woke up today thinking "Who the hell can wake up one day and suddenly be afraid of eating?"  And right now I feel really angry and silly.  Why on earth would I do this to myself?  I don't want to be anorexic and I used to like eating.  It's like I go through a whole series of thoughts now before I eat something and that's really annoying.  I just feel so stupid right now.  Sorry for the vent but I'm just so annoyed with it all.  And every time I can eat I realize "Hey it's ok I'm not going to choke on it..." so why do I continue to scare myself?  >:(
