I had something similar, but instead it was feeling full and nauseous with just a few bites. Food smells were the worst, and can still trigger nausea for me. I never really got around to figuring out the cause because I was bad at getting healthcare for myself. But it cleared up, weirdly, around the time I had my wisdom teeth taken out. I got my life back after that, and I hope you do too very soon.

Wishing you the best and hope you get some answers with your upcoming visit.

My bills for two people regularly come out to $50, at normal unfancy restaurants (sometimes even just fast casual). So $70 would be 3 people for me.

Sitting in a big cardboard box with my wife and closing the flaps. We were both very stressed at the time and it just felt very cozy and quiet in there.

If I had the room I would have kept it. Instead I bought a foldable pop-up tent to try to recreate the feeling, but it’s just not the same.

For me at least, it’s that I can’t do anything of substance until the scheduled thing is over. I can’t even start the video game while waiting because I’m worried I’ll get too engrossed and forget about the thing I have to go to later.
