Why has my appetite been affected so much after leaving my emotional abusive husband?
It totally depends on your emotional progress & it sounds like you’re doing better & better each day. After a very bad breakup with cheating involved, I went down to 92 lbs & I’m 5’5″. It took me about 2 yrs to get back to being healthy in body and another year or so to feel healthy in mind. Some of us are affected more deeply than others so it all depends on you. The fact that you don’t have to see this person (living in the same town or something) is really great for you because that is what made my progress so slow. What really helped me was keeping protein shakes with me at all times. If I couldn’t think of swallowing food I would drink one of those because regardless of appetite our bodies need some form of nourishment & drinking something wasn’t as bad as eating for me. Best of luck & congrats on taking charge of your life. Too many women never take that step.
