I have really bad sensory issues around food which have got worse to the point I can only eat a few foods- even plain pasta isn’t an option because of the irregular texture. I have always relied on mostly beige and bland foods and mostly snack food. Not only is this annoying and can make me feel unwell but it causes a lot of insecurity around eating around people and general body image because it’s hard to eat healthy foods. when I was diagnosed i Was given information on Arfid but I’m not sure if it is that or just sensory issues from autism. Does anyone have similar experience?
It’s interesting that you were given information about ARFID because my understanding is nice still doesn’t acknowledge that ARFID is a real thing.
