My Coping Skill (Save that last bite for tomorrow morning)

I love to eat. When I am full, I feel happy. So lot of time I feel like I want to eat everything on the plate, and let myself be really full. But when I have depression, I chose not to eat that last bit of dinner and save it for the next day breakfast. Cooking takes energy and time, and when I am depressed I can not cook. And if I don't cook and eat, I have no energy and I feel miserable. Having a small portion of food in the morning, ready to be microwaved, is really good because I can usually manage to microwave something and eat it. And having something (even a little bit of food) in my body in the morning helps me get energy to make some breakfast and start out my day.
