Craving for Food and Sex I thought was primal. With PFS the Sex part is a major problem. What causes craving for food? is anyone else feeling like they are not excited about food? are they connected to neurotransmitters

They are definitely connected. The times I went through recovery periods I would get so hungry I thought I would kill someone if I didn’t eat
i thought about this too…
your body probably doesn’t like what you put in it, so it shuts off hunger.
Ditto, metabolism goes into overdrive.
I have this too, it was in fact very evident during my crash where I did not eat/sleep for 3-4 days.
I am serious that actually happened to me alittle over a year ago.
Now I dont crave foods very often.
I’m not excited about food at all. I feel it’s pretty easy for me to keep to strict diets, because I don’t actually crave anything. Only rarely do I feel hunger, and if I do it’s only mild.
Yup, it’s as if our entire reward system has been destroyed. We don’t resond to postive and negative reinforcement like healthy people.
Been going through this a lot recently. Hunger that feels so powerful it’s as if it is draining your whole stomach. It has also corresponded with recovery periods for me.
This makes no sense. Your contribution is a negative.
This is the one side effect that doesn’t particulary bother me, but interesting how it plays into everything else.
