Reminded me of my childhood. I didn't know what is considered feeling hungry. Maybe because I was the odd one or maybe it's my mom's cooking. Not that she's not a good cook but she often cooked something that felt...vomit inducing for me. No wonder I was so skinny
I couldn't eat from the moment I was born, and I cried a lot. My mother shoved me into the bathroom in an attempt not to hear me, till I ended up in the hospital. I assume she can coo,k but so could I at a very young age. I still have "nightmares" about the food served. (Saturday bread with honey, that honey was like dried crust on the bread, it made me gag, same for milk and honey - yuck). Sundays were the worst. Soup was fine, but it was all too much. The dessert was the worst of all. Some pudding I couldn't swallow because of the tiny things/pieces in it.
Till today, I have issues with swallowing, bread is more like a piece of dough that makes me gag or choke. It seems I am not the only one.. Two of my children deal with the same issues.
The story of Suppenkasper (Soup Kasper) didn't help to make me eat either. LOL
Oh dear, so sorry to know that. Experience like that can affect one deeply even through adulthood.
Did you check with the doctor about the issue since your children are having the same thing too?
I gagged a lot with childhood bad food and force feeding but it didn't happen again until these couple of years. It's being treated as GERD but the issue persist, definitely something not right.
You know, our tube is so long and so many parts of them. Something malfunctioned.
You will need to have a glass of water near you whenever you eat.
Is Soup Kasper a story to make children eat their food? It's the first time I heard of this story.
It's always an eye opener discovering different cultural. Please share more of this in your stories.
Der Suppekasper.. It's German with if you ask me not too child friendly stories. There's also one that shows what happens if you play with fire. For sure today we would say it's barbarian, but the same counts for fairy tales. They never had that happy ending.
We simply limit the bread, one can live without.
I spent a big part of my life as a labrat and will never return to that life. It harmed me more than it helped me.
I was forced to emoty my plate. My grandmother gave the same plate back with every meal, even if it was spoiled. ☹️
A result of surviving the hunger winter or poverty 🤔
Any idea what triggerd it with you again or is it part of getting older?
It's strange how many problems one can have and live with.
🤗🍀♥️
What?! Spoiled food? That was very traumatizing in my opinion. And it's not helpful at all.
Hunger winter or poverty or war. I read some war horrors, cannibalism. 😓
Not sure what triggered. I've never had gastric problem. But I had this period of time that I was bulimic because of bullying. Doctor told me it could be one of the issues.
The European has the original fairy tales that all got toned down by Disney. Nowadays I look out for the grimmer ones. Just finished watching one Japanese retelling of the fairy tales.
Yeah, people nowadays are not as healthy. The other where I am writing, we talked about that a lot. Almost everyone has some kind of health issue.
I believe it's the food and all the medication, vaccinations included. It contains a lot that we shouldn't eat. Next to that, it turns out we breathe in a lot of plastic (enough in the brain to make a spoon out of it, can you imagine that?).
Bowel issues only increase, mainly harmed by wheat (rice is part of the family of grass). I also believe that raw food does harm the intestines. We aren't cows or sheep, and vegetables are the hardest to digest, not to mention palm fat and all the allergies occurring. It cannot be a coincidence, and also not because we are old and ate it too much, since more and more babies suffer from it.
Now my daughter turns out to have a fructose allergy (caused by eating too much food. She never eats food, only lately 1 apple per day). If you think about it, it's ridiculous.
I agree with you that everyone has health issues even if we consider ourselves healthy (so do I by the way, mainly because I gave up on doctors and medication).
How did your daughter survive on 1 apple daily? That must be so hard.
I heard about food allergies especially peanut and seafood but it's the first time I heard about fructose allergy. I must go and read on that after this.
Indeed, human body is degenerating with each passing generation, that's why the babies are born with issue.
I'm trying to avoid medication where I can because it can cause a lot of burden to our organ.
She didn't. The apple made her sick. For some reason, she kept finishing that bag of apples (I wouldn't if it made me sick). I know some months ago she felt miserable after eating tangerines, not the first days though but it started after 1 or 2 weeks. In average, she eats what people call "unhealthy". Some bread, cheese, or yoghurt, and she drinks water. Only a hot meal once in a while. Interesting is that candies and chocolate don't make her sick, but fruit does
The fructose allergy should heal itself if you stop eating fruit so no long-term damage (unless it already happened and that's the reason. The body is something I doubt we can 100% understand. More interesting is how the mind can influence the body and keep it healthy and functioning),
If it comes to allergies, it turns out that certain foods start if you eat it too much. In the Western world, it will be wheat, while in countries where rice is a common food, it will be rice.
Medications have a lot of side effects, more than people can imagine, and the biggest part isn't even mentioned. I once took malaria tablets I literally had all of them and nearly choked in my tongue because it was swollen from the meds. I will never take it again. The only thing the doctor did was shrug. He knew about my allergies but didn't care or give a second thought. Why should they? They get paid and even extra paid by the pharmaceutical industry.
