Yeah, thank you Booyakasha.
Nice to see you here tonight (my night )Thank you once again for my Myna bird masterpiece. I'm going to add some more to it tonight.
Yeah, the man across the road has been trying to get me to have these things we have here in Australia called Up And Go! I can't stomach it really.
Listen, I know what trouble you must have gone to to make the above post and I thank you. You're one of the nicest people I've met on WP in a long time and I've been on here a little while and I haven't even known you all that long!
Thank you!Oh no problem at all
I just hope you start to feel better soon and find a way to stop losing even more weigh. But yeah, some can't stomach such foods...too bad, I liked the chocolate flavoured one.And no problem about Myna Birds - I mean thanks to you I actually became aware of their existence!

Maybe just a hearing problem?
if your food and sleep have been restricted for that long, and you are experiencing mainly aural anomalies, I would guess [from personal experience at least] that your brain is protesting with something called an acoustic migraine. yes, they do exist, they are the aural analogs of ocular migraines. the way to tell for sure, is to whistle a swept tone somewhere between 500 cycles per second and 2000 cycles per second [that is the most sensitive range of human hearing mechanism] and if you hear "wolf tones" somewhere in the middle of that range, that is a sure sign of an aural migraine. the only solution is to GO TO SLEEP but FIRST EAT SOMETHING with carbohydrates in it. then sleep. when you wake up, chances are it will be gone or greatly reduced.
Thank you auntblabby for your concern, I'm fine

Oh auntblabby, I hope you're right. Thank you. a) How do I get a "whistle that whistles a swept tone somewhere between 500 cycles per second and 2000 cycles per second"?
luckily, one's natural whistling frequency falls easily in that range, just whistle the lowest tone you can manage and then sweep it upwards in pitch until you can't whistle any shriller. in the middle of that sweep, if you have an aural migraine, in place of the whistle tone you will hear something weird- for some people they hear "birdies" and for others they hear a buzzing, and for others the tone just disappears and is replaced with a hum or a hiss. this is amenable to a mixture of caffeine, acetominiphen, aspirin OR ibuprofen, carbs, [NO ALCOHOL!! !] and shut-eye for at least an hour.

b) I can't sleep. Do you know when you're starting to go to sleep and your thoughts start to get a bit 'funny' and you realize, "Oh, I'm falling asleep!"? Well, for those nights, I'd never got to the 'funny' thinking part. I just lay there thinking about what's going on and thinking, "Am I ever going to get to sleep?"
you don't have to fall totally asleep, you can get many of the bennies of sleep by just lying still in a comfortable position, and not letting your brain think of anything, meditating on stillness and silence.

With the eating, I do worry about it and I try to get food to eat but when I go to eat it, the thought makes me sick. I used to LOVE KFC but now, even just walking past a greasy fish and chip shop makes me feel sick. It's at the point, people at work are trying to get me to eat. I've gone from 105kg (231.485 lbs) down to 65kg (143.3 lbs) through depression and anxiety over a space of about 7-8 months when I was in the psych hospital after I split up with my ex of 23 years and a 20 year old daughter.
luckily it is far easier to gain weight than lose it, take it from me!
I'm sorry that you had to suffer so. 
that was quite an ordeal. 
are you seeing a pdoc now?

there MUST be some food item that you can readily eat in good quantities that is acceptable to your appetite.
