    When my son, aged 3, decided not to eat vegetables, we got him to grow his own. When they were cooked and served, he ate them, because he grew them. I very obviously froze his vegetables to make them last over the winter. He's eaten vegetables ever since.

    He's got a very serious phobia, wow, that's kind of sad. I can understand how a phobia feels, so I can really emphazise with the frustration of feeling paralized, being aware of how absurd it is, and just how angry you can get with yourself for not being able to overcome it. Also how just the slight thought of it can make your stomach turn, or feeling how you're getting sick and anxious. just thinking about it. it's quite terrible.

    at first i thought this guy was ridiculous but i also have some phobias with eating and i can relate so much to him. i do love fruits and veggies but i have more of a sensory issues with preparing and smells of food once it’s cooked. i’m improving a lot on it and when his friend was feeding him the fruit salad ice cream it reminded me of when i have to force myself not to smell my food once it’s prepared. it’s very hard to confront these fears so i applaud anyone who has the courage to conquer it.

    I know this will sound crazy to a lot of you and I would never believe this, if it didn't live it. I grew up loving all sorts of veggies and fruit. When I grew up and decided to eat whatever I wanted for years... I have difficulty eating the right food on my own. Part of it is me, but junk and fast food have chemicals that wire your brain to only want the junk. It also wired me to stop me wanting healthier choices. I am changing that and lost 50 pounds now, but the years of addiction had me afraid of what I know is good for me. Junk wires cravings and your mind.

    I'm a regular listener to Chris's Radio 6 show and had no idea about this part of his life. His phobia was remarkable but I liked that he had enough self awareness to understand that it was not normal and needed to be dealt with, even when he had trouble even saying the names of the fruit and veg. While it's none of our business, I'm curious how he is managing today and if he's continued to progress. I know he has at least one child now, so that would be the motivation for most people to want to stay healthy since they showed him how he was heading down a pretty grim road health-wise. Phobias are serious business and it was impressive the process they took him through, and how his determination lead to some serious progress. Good on the guy.

He might as well be bloody best actor in the world and fake it of course. So I do think people got to show a little bit more compassion towards him.

    I think the lack of food or overeating is all about control. When kids don’t have any, they look for **something** that is theirs to manage. As I’m watching this, he just talked about needing control! My mother is German and was *obsessed* with food and control in every bit of our lives. She gave me a sandwich every day that was her favorite: Mayo, lettuce, peanut butter, stale bread… plus a bruised apple. I had to bring the core home after school and she inspected it. If there was too much apple on the now brown core, I had to stand there and eat it.

    A lot of these people seem to have had parents that gave up on them early, or they've never been brave enough to try new foods themselves.
    I had to eat what I was given or go hungry, I don't hate everything I was fed now? Like most people I know, but with the few I know who don't eat more than 1 or 2 things, they were never introduced to new foods, or their parents gave up on them like I said above.
    Something seriously wrong with parents who don't think of their kid's futures and teach them some lessons like maybe.. eat or go hungry? lol

    • @Minh4x
      @Minh4x 3 роки тому

      Yeah I get that but then some people try that and don’t like seeing their kids starve. Like I hate split peas and my parents wanted to get me to eat so they said if I didn’t eat it they wouldn’t give me anything else I starved myself for a day and a half before they just gave up and let me eat something else. That being said it wasn’t a problem for me because i could still eat other vegetables. My point is they probably gave up when they saw their threat backfired.

    • @FunSize4Audibles
      @FunSize4Audibles Рік тому

      Not really. Several people on the show recounted stories of having the whole "if you don't eat it now, you'll have it for the next meal, then the next, then the next" routine pulled on them, and for severe food aversion, that tactic can be quite damaging as it actually heightens anxiety around mealtimes, making the situation worse.

    So ironic that his food phobia came from his need for control. His phobia was absolutely controlling him. Makes me wonder about what other control issues he might have. For instance is he one of those insanely jealous people? Glad he made such progress but he has been the hardest to watch of these shows. I sure hope he was able to keep it up. That is a lot of movement in a really short period of time.

      That’s because he KNOWS SHE is the one who would actually make him eat the food he feared. But there is also the fact the therapist forged a relationship with him prior to getting him to eat at that restaurant. So a mix of preconceived notions and lack of trust being built. I mean he didn’t have A SINGLE GOOD experience with her until the end. 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️
