So I have been eating alot lately. My mom thinks it's because I'm in cross country but I only run 3 to 4 miles in the mornings. It's really weird too because when I started high school a few weeks ago, I couldn't eat without feeling nauseous. This morning alone I ate oatmeal and 2.5 servings of mac and cheese. I think it's because I'm trying to avoid writing this stupid essay but it's been going on for about a week.
Are you on anti-depressants, medicinal oral steroids (like Prednisone), or pain killers (like Oxycodone or Hydrocodone)?
You could be having a growth spurt. You could be building muscle. You could have an illness and/or an eating disorder. You could just be stress eating, or eating because you're bored. If you're worried about your eating patterns, you should talk to your parents and/or a doctor.
Not on any type of medications. I guess growth would make sense but I wouldn't say I'm stressed and I don't think I'm bored since I do have things to do. Thanks!
