You should look into the Rhodiola for stress at least. It shouldn't have any side effects except for a slight stimulant effect.

Thank you. I was hoping someone would take my side. And, No, he's not perfect either (bald spot, toothpick-thin). He says he loves me, but it sure doesn't feel that way. I'm in a vulnerable position at this phase of my life and he uses that to his advantage. He knows I got noone else.

It would be great if you could widen your circle of friends, or look into some free counseling. This weight loss issue is just the tip of the iceberg of problems you are having with this man. It is never OK for a man to tell a woman how she should look. He is obviously in a power position, if he took you in when homeless and now thinks he can be God while you are a grateful subject. It just pisses me off when I hear of a man treating a woman that way.
