General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,

The symptoms seem to be related to anorexia. I suggest a visit to a psychiatrist to get evaluated. Also talking therapy is very effective. Meanwhile, I suggest eating healthy and sleeping well. A supervised weight gain is very important.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
