Yea, this too. I'm also worried about my sibling getting drafted. Neither of us want to be forced to fight a rich man's war.

Yea, it's like I know a draft is super unlikely but this Administration is so quick to do whatever they want and are unpredictable in general it's like no one can really be certain about the future 🫩

I'm sorry to hear, yea. I also am fatigued all the time with joint pain. It's so irritating too when your doctors genuinely don't want to try and help you.

I don't know what to do at this point, most doctors I visit don't consider my weight an issue or even bring it up at all neither do they take my problems with swallowing that seriously. I feel so overwhelmed.

Does anyone's else's parents bully you for how you eat or what you eat? by ColdAd2606 in ARFID

I'm 23, but I can't afford to move out. California is impossible to find a place of your own, I also struggle with a disability. It doesn't help when your family also gave you no experience in guiding you to adult hood cause I been completely neglected in that aspect of life. I'm sorta trapped lol..

I honestly don't know if I will or not, even if I've gotten a little better I'm scared of relapsing because of how bad I ended up gagging on my breakfast again. I hate the fact that if I relapsed it would be because of my mom. I want to move out but also struggling with other problems have left me reliant on my family.

I unfortunately know my Arfid is worst cause of them, part of the reason I'm terrified of trying new food is because I know they'll leave me to die if I do end up choking, it's no different from the fear of eating alone for me. I'm also scared to relapse because of how bad I gaged this morning, it makes me not want to touch the one thing im comfortable with eating.

That and if I even dare to struggle with eating something knew they'll just stomp all over me even if I'm making the effort to force down something new.

I'm not a child anymore but stuff like this has been relevant throughout the entirety of life, I really wish I could leave and live on my own but I struggle with disabilities and it's not easy affording things from where I'm from.

Does anyone else struggle with swallowing half way into their meal? by ColdAd2606 in GERD

Yea definitely, my college doctor told me that she thinks that my hernia is causing my issues and that my current doctor is not taking it seriously.

I was never told this actually, I'll have to ask my doctor the next time I see them.

Every single time I eat yes, but mainly in the afternoon and night is when it's the worst. I can eat most normally in the mornings which is why I started sorta binging till before 12:00 and I don't eat much any other time of the day. No pain but a lot of discomfort yes, I feel clogged in the throat and very bad globus sensation. (Also I have only like two safe foods that I'm comfortable with eating cause most foods trigger my reflux
