Sometimes I feel depressed. When I get like that, eating healthy seems like just another dull experience. After days and days of that muted pointless feeling I eat a bunch of fries just to feel any bit of joy. I just got health insurance. I'm hoping I can start therapy soon so I can deal with my issues without disordered eating.
