Struggling to Eat Without Permission

That sounds really frustrating to ha for alone. If you can I would suggest letting someone safe into that and if you need to be invited to eat ask them to do it until you can manage doing it yourself. Ask if they’ll send you a text to say hey you need to eat. And try to figure out a way for you to do that for yourself. Sometimes I tell myself after I do this one thing it’s ok to eat and actually do it. If I don’t I forgot to eat until I’m nauseous and it’s so much harder. Sometimes I feel like I have to earn the right to eat so for me just waking up and telling myself to eat doesn’t work. Logically I know I don’t have to earn it but I have to trick myself into giving permission to eat until it’s a habit. Try to work with how your brain and body works and it may be different than others but small, consistent things are what make the biggest difference. Maybe try setting a reminder on your phone at a certain time giving permission- you may not actually look at it but at least it’ll remind you that what you’re attempting to do is important and that matters.
