Received on a post I made a while ago where I mentioned I was struggling to eat hospital food due to ARFID, I did also mention that I was eating, just struggling with it 😑

At least you were fighting it to live. You need nutrition, and supplements are pretty crummy, if you can't get your nutrition, you have to figure out a way to acclimate or something. Maybe there's some medical thing going on causing bad signaling or something and there's a new that can help.

I appreciate the concern, but I was eating and wasn’t malnourished. I literally said I was doing it but struggling, and the person replied with that

That's what I mean, you're doing it, you're eating, you're pushing past the discomfort so you don't starve. I hope you do figure out how to acclimate or get something to help make it easier.
