I don't like to eat

I am not anorexic. I just find eating a nasty chore. I eat smoothies and protein bars when I am alone. I hate watching other people eat. It is repulsive-like pigs at a trough. I have very limited human relationships because of this. I was bridesmaid at my sister's wedding but she is not speaking to me as I skipped the reception because of all the food and being pressured to eat food with relatives, and getting criticism because I don't like to eat.
I am attractive and have no problem finding dates, but the minute a guy asks me to dinner, forget it. I hate the smell of food. I hate food on people's breath. My therapist suggested I try marijuana. Would it help? Is this a disorder or just how I am? Should I try to change, or just accept myself?

Help us keep this site organized and clean. Thanks!

    But I get enough calories and vitamins.I also puree tofu, boiled veg, and rice for dinner, and choke it down. I just hate the color of food, the smell, and the texture. I am a normal weight, though on the thin side of normal weight. I go to the gym a lot, because I feel accepted for my love of protein shakes,working out,and talking about workout routines. None of us eat there. My workplace is problematic as my coworkers seem to regard eating lunch together as our duty.

      Are you able to eat yogurts or snacks? I used to have those issues but some fruits I loved. I never hated or was disgusted by everything....

    Something is askew in your brain.

    That sounds like some kind of eating disorder, but I am not sure. You are supposed to enjoy food. This is not normal.

    You should take the advice your therapist gave you.

    Smoking weed will give you the munchies big time. So that was good advice. But you are mentally ill. Get some help!
