I'm looking advise on eating and depression. Can the two be linked?!
Question: I'm looking advise on eating and depression. Can the two be linked?
I haven't really been eating. Yesterday I had cereal and a tin of spaghetti, for dinner I ordered in a pizza but after I ate it I had diarrhea. For the past week all I've ate is cereal (Breakfast), a tin of spaghetti (Late lunch early dinner) and that's it. I feel hungry yet I don't go and get proper food. My brain says I'm hungry but I 'forget' about and carry on with what I'm doing. My stomach is rumbling right now but I don't want to eat.
I'm going to my doctor when I can be bothered to make an appointment. Was just wondering if anyone knows if the depression and lack of eating could be linked? I'm just interested before I go to the doctor.
Please only mature/ sensitive people answer cos I can't be bothered with a** holes.
Answers:
It isn't uncommon for depression to effect a person's normal daily activities, which can in some cases include appetite and eating patterns. I would not put off making that appointment with your doctor.
Of course the two are connected. I suffered from depression and started eating alot. I started not to care about my appearance and gained some weight, now i lost the weight. If i were you, i would try to go to a credible therapist or social worker and if you still have issues with depression, medication might help.
