You need to try eating very small light meals for a few days. Stay away from the greasy/sweet junk food. If this does not get better in the next couple of days, you should get to the doctor and get checked. Also watch for a fever, if you are or start running a fever you should go now. Hope things are better for you very soon.

How long has this been going on? When I get stressed or sick and don't eat for a few days (well don't eat much) my stomach seems to shrink. For about 2 weeks after I get better I just can't seen to eat. I'm never hungry and if I do eat then I get full fast. Just try to eat a small breakfast, lunch, and dinner and before long you should be doing fine.

Anorexia is a mental disorder with physical effectws, you don't sound anorexic. Your body is not used to eating, eat small meals and don't eat junk food, instead of chips have some carrots or a piece of fruit. If you get pains when you eat go see a doctor.

Start by eating foods that are easy to digest, to get your body used to eating again. Soup (clear broth), rice, maybe oatmeal. Your appetite will gradually return. The easiest thing to digest is goat milk, heated up on the stove. Also drink camomile tea, or spice tea, ginger tea.

it doesn't sound like anorexia to me.... anorexia is a choice you make to basically starve yourself to become thin. from your question, it doesn't seem like you are striving to be thin, since you aren't skipping meals on purpose.
however, the symptoms you have sound like depression (my friend has it and her therapist says that "unintentional anorexia" is a symptom). of course it just might be that you are still sick, but if it worries you, definitely talk to a trusted adult about it, or see a doctor.

you're not anorexic.
see a doctor and stop complaining about being skinny.
