Alone
It feels bad to be alone. Not the "alone" where all you wanna do is sit in your room and watch Netflix and eat an entire bag of chips or the burrito that you have been craving for the past week and a half, that kind of alone feels good—where you can feel ugly and not care because you are alone to indulge in being gross and burp and laugh at those stupid jokes that no one really understands why you're laughing but you laugh at it anyway because you don't have to explain to anyone. That alone is good and people need that "alone" time to decompress from outside stresses.

Stress
Stress. It's insidious; "Proceeding in a gradual, subtle way, but with harmful effects." It creeps up on you, and when you don't see the signs, it has a fickle way of making you become the person you never wanted to be. I believe I will be this way forever, and that stresses me out.

The Rules: Eat regularly. Eating five or six meals smaller meals per day when you are underweight can be more manageable compared to the standard three. This is because you typically feel full faster than a person at a healthy weight. Don’t drink before meals. Fluids before meals can affect your appetite. Try limiting drinking until 30 minutes after you’ve eaten. Add nutritious drinks to your diet. Avoid soft drinks and caffeine-heavy coffee that adds little nutritional value to your diet. Try milk, fruit juices, healthy shakes, and fruit smoothies instead. The will help increase the energy in your diet and also add important nutrients for your health too. Eat nutritious foods. When underweight, sticking to a healthy diet can help you safely gain weight. Choose fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, whole grain cereals, bread and pasta, lean meats and dairy products. Snack healthy. Snacking on avocados, nuts, cheese, peanut butter, or dried fruits between mealtimes can be a good way to gain weight. Treat yourself. Even when underweight it’s fine to have an unhealthy treat every now and then. But be mindful of excess fat and sugar—try to keep most treats nutritious and healthy. Work out. Strength training (building muscle) can help you gain weight. Exercise may also help you get your appetite back.
