It tends to affect people with ADHD, anxiety, OCD or autism.

It's an eating disorder where basically ur brain doesn't interpret most foods as, well...., foods. So u will have physical reactions to eating some stuff, like vomiting or gagging.

People with this disorder tend to have a narrow range of foods. And no this is not the same as picky eating. U cant make a child with ARFID eat a "non-safe" food, they have severe anxiety just by its smell and visual presence

i was only able to start eating one of these foods and thats eggs and that took me 2 yrs of slow adaptation

I have cybophobia derived from emetophobia which is derived from OCD.

Depends on whether u failed to maintain ur normal weight. Non organic FTT is first manifested by weight loss and only then by height loss. It stunted mine for sure. PM me if u want. I even had therapy for this as a kid and the doctors recognized its effects on height

Did he? He eats everything. Doesnt seem to have a disinterest in food lol. Its just generally characterized by a failure to gain weight and much lower caloric intake. Thats not his case at all. He seems to enjoy eating lots of foods

i dont think i i stunted my height
i stopped growing randomly 12-14, grew .5 inches in that time
my puberty is normal
only started growing since 14 when i had a random growth spurt
but i wasnt low weight, 70% of what i ate was junk food and carbs and some protein but not enough, so i fat as fuck without gaining muscle so im pretty sure thats not it just shit genes most liekly

because you're so mad i called it a normal thing?
there are many things we eat that visually don't look like food. our brain don't interpret the texture and look as food.
everyone experiences it to a degree i don't see why it has to be a condition
it's so fucking simple

psychology is a joke they make up shit to feel important
 
idk if i stunted my height
i stopped growing randomly 12-14, grew .5 inches in that time
my puberty is normal
only started growing since 14 when i had a random growth spurt
but i wasnt low weight, 70% of what i ate was junk food and carbs and some protein but not enough, so i fat as fuck without gaining muscle
U should look at when u were younger. Idk did u lose weight from ages 1 to 4 brutally bc of it? Bc I simply wouldnt eat shit.
By age 6 i was off the charts in weight.
Depends on how narrow ur range of foods was and how much it affected ur appetite
U stop growing at 14 doesnt mean u were stunted lol

U can be tall and stunted though. Im 168.5cm. My brother is 170cm although he never had HGH treatment and was born shorter than me, my dad is 178cm and my mom is 157cm.
I would have never had been above 175cm. At age of 6 months which is when u r supposed to reach ur height percentile i was about in the 30% percentile. I could have been prob around 173cm given my height as a baby and my parents' height
Also my frame could have been better

maybee tbh my growth leveled off at 5'9 and my mom is 5'9 with my dad being 6'1
it started again when i used mk677 and hgh

I also had ARFID now I just consider myself to be kinda picky,
if you want to start opening up yourself for more foods then start eating things that are mixed
of a few ingredients that you like when mixed but don't like alone (like pizza, hamburgers and etc...)
now I eat a lot of foods, still hate many salads and still puke from some foods but I can eat nutritious and real foods
also I used to hate hamburgers with anything on them now I order them with all of the vegetables
 
only for eggs
as a child, my dad would force me to eat boiled eggs and I would gag eating white part
I still can't eat eggs soft boiled or fried its disgusting to me
