How to overcome the fear of gaining weight?
Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I have been feeling low for quite some time. I have crying spells for no reason. I have fear of gaining weight. So I hardly eat anything and compensate the calories consumed by exercising and sometimes throwing up after eating. I am not able to concentrate on my studies. I end up staring at walls.
