slowly doing some exposure therapy lol
so ocd/arfid go in tune with my emetophobia. im severely afraid of eating leftovers. im always afraid itll make me sick even if its only been one day and if its been refrigerated. i wont eat something if its been left out for an hour. today i was so hungry so i had leftover taco bell (a gordita crunch mm) and i was a little scared to eat it bc i was afraid of being sick, but still i put it in the toaster for a bit then the microwave and ate most of it. i only didnt finish it cuz im weird w texture and eat like specific parts lol but my parents and bf were actually rly proud of me today for literally eating leftovers. ridiculous ik but its been making me feel a little better. i did get a bit worried bc ive been rly gassy after i ate it (i had it maybe around 3-4 pm, its 10:30 pm now) but i think im fine, i actually feel hungry, success!
