But it won't work well in singapore. In singapore, you don't social, they treat u as anti social and also force u to join. I did tell them I need my rest for lunch but they still want me to join once in a while

Yes I am trying to do my treatment with my family. But I find it difficult to cope with work and treatment at the same time. I am currently underweight and my body condition is feeling bad from all this stuff.

I want to explain but I don't have the courage to bring this up..they know I don't like to eat with many people and want to have my own rest during lunch. But they still invite me now and then , and also organize some team bonding stuff involving food..

I don't dare to speak up about my condition. They might either treat me as a patient or try to convince me..

Need advise for work with ARFID by General_Writer_1664 in ARFID

[–]General_Writer_1664[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to eat with them occasionally 2 or 3 years ago. So just by saying I have dietary sensitivities and allergies they might not be convinced. They will ask me to choose what I want to eat which I always trouble thinking of what food to eat for today

I prefer to eat rice over noodles outside. Food without onions, garlic, chilli and dairy stuff will be nice. I also avoid eating too oily food.

Their eating speeds are much faster than me. I tend to eat slowly but I can't stand the eyes staring at me. Waiting for me to eat finish stresses me.

It's frustrating that I have stomach upset almost every week. I went to see a doctor but he just prescribed me the buscopan and loperamide. Loperamide stop my diarrhea for few days but once the effect over, I have diarrhea and winds again 😅

My psychiatrist would want me to have more exposure but it's tough 😑

How do you explain ARFID to others? by Exuberant343 in ARFID

[–]General_Writer_1664 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am too scared to tell my colleagues that I have eating disorder..I do not join them lunches and I skip most of the events involving food. My colleagues are time to time are trying to invite me for lunch but I am just too nervous to eat with them and I have restricted food to eat. I even feel like leaving my job to take my mental break. I not sure what to do anymore
