Not feeling hungry.. at all?

[Anonymous]

I haven't felt hungry, at all, for the couple of weeks or so.

I went the first 4 days without eating because I just didn't feel hungry, but I've been trying to eat at least something everyday now because I figure even if I can't feel hungry, probably not great for me not to eat.

Any idea what's up?

i recommend you go and see a doctor straight away.. if your symptoms persist more than 2 weeks, its recommend to seek medical advice.

the most serious condition you could have is cancer. that's one of the most common signs of cancer. but don't let me scare you. because you are asking the wrong people here. without someone medically qualified, it could be anything.

really you must go to your doctor, they will have to do tests, and look into your medical history.

good luck hope all goes well for you.

Don't let you scare me? You just said this is a common sign of cancer...

[brandonlee1234]

usually with cancer you don't feel hungry, no appetite at all. and weight loss as well? you could have anorexia. any number of things. cancer is just one of them.

[brandonlee1234]

you could be pregnant? pregnancy causes loss of appetite.

[Asker]

I doubt that.

[brandonlee1234]

look don't worry what I said. no answer on here will give you the correct one, especially when it comes to medical conditions. just go and see your doctor if it lasted more than 2 weeks. don't assume the worst either. your symptoms could range from anything.

That's really weird. A trip to the doctors sounds like what you need.

[Asker]

I know it is, ahh D:

[MrFlirtatious1992]

I'm curious. Did you go those 4 days feeling full up or did the thought of food just sicken you?

[Asker]

I wouldn't say I felt full, like I couldn't eat/was satisfied, I was just kind of neutral, had no urge for food and even if something I loved was offered to me I wasn't remotely interested, but it didn't sicken me as such.

[MrFlirtatious1992]

Anything traumatic happen recently like a break up or the death of someone close to you? I can't think of anything, it's weird but also interesting at the same time.

[Asker]

Nope, nothing traumatic. :/

[MrFlirtatious1992]

Wow...then yeah get to a doctor. Don't listen to what anyone says on here unless they are doctors. They are just gonna feed your mind with crap you don't need.

[Asker]

Yeah, okay, thanks.

That happens a lot to me but I still eat to keep my muscles strong & I love food. Just eat a small proportions of food. It could be that your belly is filled with acid & which results you not feeling hungry.

Your brain isn't releasing the hormone, I'm guessing. Though your stomach will still growl when it's empty. If you don't feel hungry, you should use a growling stomach as an indicator of your hunger. Or do as you're doing and just eat something periodically. Perhaps visiting a doctor so that they can give you a medication that will induce hunger. And, let's face it, it's probably going to be weed, lol.

[Asker]

But would that just randomly start now? I'm 20, so wouldn't it be a lifetime thing?

And would they really prescribe weed? I wouldn't wanna do that..

[Distant]

Disease is often written into your DNA and it's impossible or difficult to avoid. Look at Stephen Hawking. He wasn't always in a wheelchair. In fact, he was already an accomplished intellectual before it hit him. It's likely that they could prescribe weed to give you an appetite but there are also alternatives, of course.

I think you've got the "Hardly Hungry" trait from The Sims 3

[Asker]

Oh damn, I wonder how many points that cost me..

[Opinion Owner]

20 I think :P

[Asker]

Damn it, I was saving up.

[smilenbehappy]

did anything happen recently? been feeling down?

[Asker]

Not significantly more than usual/have in the past.

[smilenbehappy]

maybe you don't think so but maybe something is affecting you . might be physical or emotional... just get it checked out :)
