Experiencing gastrodysphoria is very different from simply dislike food since is a psychological distress, unease, fragmentation or a gender chaos related to one's [[Gender Identity|gender identity]] '. The felt dysphoria can be intense to the point it may cause severe '''depressive symptoms''', intense '''anxiety''' or '''self-destructive''' thoughts. Someone can experience gastrodysphoria but still find food delicious even if it causes gender dysphoria and a person can dislike a specific food without having a gastrodysphoria on that specific food.
