Opinion: I cured my ARFID with psilocybin. I shouldn’t have needed to self-treat it
I tried an untested a DIY therapy, and it worked.
For 27 years, I tried to make myself eat vegetables. Last fall, I ate my first salad.
Since I was 2 years old, I had an eating disorder known as ARFID — avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder. After an infant ear surgery, I mysteriously could only tolerate bread and cheese. Every other food made me gag. A ripe orange, for example, smelled like rotting flesh.
