is this just a me thing or a common experience: sometimes I have a sandwich and I don't feel up to eating the whole thing, so I'll open it up and eat the components bit by bit and often end up eating the whole thing eventually

I at least have never done this

this is a trick my therapist taught me in order to help me eat

breaking a whole meal down into smaller, more manageable things

like components of it, or by ripping it into small pieces

I see, my appetite is small but my brain is huge

YES this is me

Also with burgers most of the time

I also don’t eat very much
