For the last 4 years the thought of food and eating food makes me sick...It seems to me that the all thee food smells very bad...It's like i hightened my sense of smell when i eat and i start sensing odors that makes me nausea.I also feel very tired,no energy,and always stressed ..like i am always under threat..i feel vulnerable ...like i can not defend myself..from the others..
Do you think it might be adrenal fatigue?many symptoms coresspond...and i also read that when there is pressure on the adrenal glands the sense of smell is hightened ...

yes, it could be adrenal fatigue...what you have to do is get to the bottom of what is making you so stressed and vulnerable. therapy can help.and also psychotropic medications.
