    Between cognitive behavioral therapy and meds, I can work 25 hours a week and still generally keep-up my apartment as long as I’m not in a funk.

    I still be eating wwwaaaayyyyy too much fast food though. Don’t even want fast food. At a point it’s kinda mentally gross even if physically very satisfying. Just don’t wanna cook. You’re telling me I gotta cook and then EAT TOO? I have ibs so 90% of frozen and fast-prep options are out. :(

      I fixed this by just eating straight ingredients and stocking moderately healthy stuff

      No cook, only eat

        I really should get over myself and start doing this. I do on occasion when I’m really struggling. But for whatever reason, maybe just mental obstinance, my brain really wants like a main and two sides on a plate with a nice drink. Otherwise it feels like it’s not gonna check the “eaten a meal” box considering I eat mostly out of habit and less from ever actually getting a signal I am hungry.

          Yeah it’s easy to do it non-committaly. Like just have some frozen spinach or broccoli in the freezer. Microwave for 4 minutes in a bowl and add some feta cheese and put it on toast if you’re feeling energetic. Easy deconstructed spanakopita
