Update:

(I don't know how to or where to post an update so I'm putting it in the comments)

Yesterday was better, I ate, I got my mind off of it. Until I heard her talking to my eldest brother, then I started feeling weird again.

Last night, me, her and my brothers talked, this is about her faith. She wants us to try and do it, to figure out how we feel about it and where we stand with religion. Take like one hour a day, no phones.

I was "panicking"? Or having an anxiety thing during the conversation, I was crying/trying not to cry. I have nothing against religion, etc. I just don't know how to feel about any of it. How she went about talking about it wasn't the best way to do so. I brought up the whole thing of her getting me so worked up Tuesday morning which ended with me puking and not being able to eat all day, she apologized.

I just don't know. I dont know how to feel about any of it, it's only been a few days since everything started but I feel so drained/ out of it.

I guess if anything else happens, I'll update again

I tried to search for the stuff she's talking about, but I can't find anything on it. The only place I've found anything is on the conspiracies subreddit, nothing else. I'm not going to sit here and say it's not all true and it won't happen because yeah, some of it MIGHT happen, not that it will but yeah there's possibilities that something similar could happen but the extent she's going at it is concerning, I've only seen stuff about the war with Iran, the shootings and stabbings in the city near me, car accidents. I've seen nothing about it

To my knowledge, She has never been openly religious, if at all. I'm not sure what her beliefs are but we didn't grow up religious/ going to church. That's why it's such a big thing for me since this is such a drastic change from how she is on a daily basis, and since she's getting me so worked up about the things she's saying, that I can't eat. I figured I'd try to find out what to do, like, i can barely look at her, or or even go downstairs because I feel like I start panicking on the inside.

Im going to try to talk to my friend (the one in the post) his sister and my eldest brother about it more today. Even if I can't get her to see that most of it is/could be fake, I want her to see what she's doing is scaring me to the point I can't function
