not eat but be sick?

[gleeek2013]

I hadn't ate in a little bit, I woke up feeling dizzy and was sick 3 times, just yellow watery stuff. That's the 2nd time iv been sick after.not eating. Is this normal? Someone told me something and I hoping it ain't right. Xx

Hi there,

Have you been restricting your food intake?

Sometimes if we haven't eaten in a while it can cause a gag reflex due to being hungry, in which case with nothing to throw up, we throw up bile, which is the yellow watery stuff you mention. It's not normal if you are doing this often.

I would recommend seeing a doctor or perhaps ringing a helpline to find out more information. Especially if you are worried, it's better to put your mind at rest.

I have hunni and the longer I don't eat iv been feeling sick and dizzy and breathless. I ate tonight and feel better, but my head is telling me to wait 3 days minimum before I can eat again it's all getting too much.

Not eating or not eating enough will make you ill.
That is normal, just the way you get ill might be different from how others feel ill.

I know dogs do this. They throw up if they're really hungry.
I'm assuming humans probably react the same way.

[gleeek2013]

Yh xx it's just I never felt as ill before I never usually get breathless and chest feels like it racing if I'm doing stuff other than walking :s

You reaaaaaaaalllyy need to be getting some form of professional help.
Sorry things are crappy but there's not much we can do unfortunately.
Probably wanna get your medical health checked out too.

I know someone from college kinda knows some of it and wants me to go and she wants to come but I'm scared to go

[dixyy]

Yeah, it's scary but in the end this will kill you if you don't try kill it first.
Try think about this properly for like one minute.
It's a scary situation but I can promise you if you carry on, 5, 10, 15 , 20 years down the line if you even make it that far, you'll probably be begging to go back in time and ask for some support.

It will be scary and it'll be hard, I won't lie.
But we're very limited on what we can do and I think at this point when you're physical health is obviously suffering, you need to start making some responsible decisions and thinking about seeing the big guys. I promise they're not that scary, the situation may be at first but it is honestly the best thing you can do right now.

Until then, make little baby steps at getting nutrients into your body, things that are easy to snack on throughout etc etc.

If you don't eat the amount of acid in your stomach builds up and irritates the lining which causes you to be sick. Also, if you don't eat for a period of time (or eat less) your stomach shrinks and it takes less food to make you feel full and eating the same amount as what you did previously can make you sick.

I'm worried about your symptoms and you need to see a doctor ASAP. It's likely that you're not getting the food you need for your body to function properly and this alongside your electrolytes likely being unbalanced (I'm assuming this due to the vomiting as well as your other symptoms and you admitting that you are not eating) will put your heart under increased stress which over time will make you incredibly I'll and can damage your heart and/ or make it function different as well as altering your other organs and this can have add can ageing affect.

You ned help both psychologically and physically to be honest and the longer you wait the more damage will be done and it could become irreversible.

Ugh the one thing that's bugs me is people butting in where not wanted!!!! One of my friends... Not very close... Kept calling me tiny today. And after a full day at college and working at college at night... It came to staff meals and she blurted out I ain't ate all day. So now about 6 people bugging me to eat not including the one who was already doing it and the one who bugged.me today
Wasn't her place to go blurt that out several times. People keep commenting on my weight loss and my small waist. It bugging me!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[gleeek2013]

But there's nothing wrong with me physically. I'm fine I don't need to go to doctors!! Yes I was sick might have been a bug I don't feel dizzy or sick no more I'm fine.

[gleeek2013]

Ki don't know my head is everywhere tbh I kno my head is messed up and I can't do help just now. My head tells me wot I'm doing is normal, but I know really its not, and when people start questioning it I get angry and I don't know why my head tells me ain't none of their business they got no right to say it.keep getting asked if I'm on diet but I ain't I'm not meaning any of this.
Everyone who says things.and sounds/looks concerned it's breaking my heart to lie to them I honestly want to open up and say do something stop this but it's always I do eat, iv ate, I'm fine honest and a fake smile. I don't know where the old me went l, and I'm really sorry for snapping at u hunni.
Only thing keeping me from crying now is god dam mascara stinging my eyes lol
