Grieving: Grieving may bring all kinds of painful symptoms, including loss of appetite. It's best to reach out to friends for support during such a difficult time, and spiritual communities may be helpful also. It may be wise to also see your doctor for a general health review, because i don't know how long you've been experiencing this. Sometimes things can morph into depression, which needs treatment.

Your Untold Story: Without knowing circumstances around ur divorce & the struggles u've experienced in life, it's impossible 2 know what "stress" means in ur case & why, specifically, u've lost ur appetite. Anger, grief, fear, shame, trauma...Various emotions/experiences could be @ play. Consider talking 2skilled mental health clinician.
