Does anyone else struggle with food? I don't think I do it because I'm hungry, I think I just like the actual sensation of eating. I have very few foods that I won't eat. I have gained a lot of weight during lockdown and for the first time in my life I am truly self-conscious about it. I know people will just say don't buy the unhealthy foods then I can't eat them but I don't have that control. I'm trying to balance it out by being more physically active but I'm not always motivated to do that either. The only thing I consistently do outside of the pandemic is walk everywhere when I'm not at work as I really don't like to drive. I get anxious about parking. Autism assessor actually suggested I apply for a blue badge but can you imagine how that would contribute to my weight gain if I wasn't as anxious about that any more?!
Interested to hear about everyone's relationship with food and any sort of disordered eating, not just binge eating.
