Struggling with OCD and Anxiety around Food

Anyone else have ocd about food? My anxiety won't let me eat anything I have at my house. 😭

I have a lot of issues with what order to eat foods in and how many of a food (grapes, etc) to eat. If I can't figure it out sometimes I just give up and eat something else - or not eat at all. Disclaimer: this also may be autism related for me.

I get really anxious if I have to eat particular foods (even if I was previously craving them) and if I suddenly think I'm eating too fast. It's not necessarily an aversion to the food itself, more like an aversion to eating in and of itself? I dunno, it's hard to describe, but it sucks
