Do they have a dietician attatched to the ward? Could you ask for a referral to speak to them? It could well be medication related - a lot of medications unfortunately do have that as a side effect, but the dietician may be able to offer some advice on how to make this as little as possible.
Don't stop taking your medication or stop eating. I can appreciate both are attempting. Like you, I have issues with food and have gained weight on medication and sometimes I have stopped eating or stopped my meds but it's just not helpful in the long run. You don't want them to be forcing you to have your medication. If you stop eating, it's not going to help for long and you are going to be even more vulnerable. x
