    Oh yeah for sure. I also have issues with OCD, specifically around food contamination and safety. It makes it damn near impossible to eat leftovers for me for the last few years.

    I waste more food than I’d like, but I just can’t bring myself to do it. Hence falling back on getting prepackaged, single serving meals, which aren’t often healthy at all.

      That fucking sucks dude I was able to get out of the depressive rut, with like massive amounts of help, wouldn’t know what I had done if I had developed OCD as well.

      how about freezing leftovers? if you have an even remotely new freezer it should work just dandy without much quality degradation.

      relatedly is frozen ingredients, especially stuff like peas that you can just stir into your meal and let that reheat them. Very easy way to add some nutrients to your diet.
