Hi everyone. I have autism and recurrent major depression. My first severe depressive episode happened when I was a teenager, and now, at 30 years old, I’m experiencing another severe episode and am currently staying in a psychiatric hospital.

I asked my therapist to also help with some things like my diet. I only eat soft foods, and I basically only eat sweet things. Which is bad. I don’t really have a feeling of being hungry, I eat with a schedule or when I‘m feeling bad.

How did you successfully change your diet long-term? I can force myself to eat differently, but at some point return to my „good foods“. I‘m actually scared to become overweight or get diabetes one day, so I really want to work on this now.
