so I haven't ate anything since yesterday evening and I don't know if its just the depression having a loss of appitite or if I'm just afraid to eat......its been about 6 months since I last threw up...I don't know if I'm just using the depression as an exuse not to eat or what.....I just know that I've only been eating once a day now for thepast couple of weeks and I think its becoming less and less and my friends are starting to notice and are worried about me.....
