Zero appetite and insomnia...?!
Question: Recently my body has been playing up. I have completely lost any shred of an appetite and my sleeping patterns are completely up the left. One day I can't get to sleep no matter what I try and the next day I can't even get out of bed I'm that tired. What is wrong with me? I am otherwise a completely healthy 19 year old male. Any ideas? I've become really skinny because I can't even look at food, I would eat maybe a slice of bread a day, and everyone around me is becoming seriously worried, including myself.

Are you exercising? Working out really helps regulate my days - keeps me hungry and helps me sleep. If you don't think that might be the problem, then its time to talk to someone. These are symptoms of a range of possiblities, none of them good. Including depression, anxiety, eating disorders, side efffect of some medications, some chronic illnesses, etc etc.. I am not trying to scare you, just saying it could be a lot of things. Some are serious, some not so much. Point is to find out what's going on. If you are stressing about it, you are just adding to the problem (see anxiety above). So the best thing to do would be go see a doc, get it off your chest - chances are its just something minor you can fix no prob.
go see a doctor.
I was just about to ask this, but I saw your post so I guess I will add this to yours maybe for cross reference.
I am 14. I went away for the week it would be soooo great and it was, but everything has lost value recently. I went to sleep and woke up the next morning with zero appitie and very tired. I talked to a few doctors a month later. I ate realy healthy and played more sports, but I felt even worse. Nothing is fun. I feel like s*** inside and out. I tried to take sick days, but it doesn't help me any. I would be completely happy if I got any food, sleep, peace of mind, or a general feeling of out of it.
All I want to do is pass out and stop all the input, my minfd can't take it. Is this uncommon?
you display symptoms of a caffieine addict
do you drink coffee? even tea or guarana drinks can cause these problems. Especially Energy Drinks (red bull, sobe, XS, Wired)
caffiene decreases appetite, and destroys sleep patterns (leaving you ultra tired when you DO fall asleep, and not letting you fall asleep in general)
