I'm having such a hard time.

A person in the house does keto to an incredibly disordered extent, obsessively counting calories for an extremely restricted intake.

I have a long history of a contentious relationship with food, stemming mostly from my mother decrying how fat I was as a child (I wasn't), and that we rarely actually had any food in the house (literally).

I'm finding it SO triggering to be around this person because pretty much the only thing they talk about is their diet.

My therapist and I spoke about it before I left. We have plans to start up EMDR therapy when I get back in March, to counter the trauma I hold around food... which is great, but also it's a long time until March.
