Basically the only advice anyone can give to you is quit being lazy and pay your damn bills. Without groceries and meal prep you are going to continue to eat out. The only person that can change that is you. Get ingredients for easy things for lunch. Pack a sandwich instead of eating out. You spent $36/day on fast food! That's insane. I don't think I've spent $36 this month and I make significantly more than you. You need to start taking care of your collections and bills or you are going to wind up without a place to live, no car, and no job. Don't wait until you hit rock bottom.

This sounds closer to a mental health/unaddressed trauma issue that is manifesting in bad spending habits. I was in this cycle years ago and it’s difficult to break and far from just “don’t be lazy.” If that was the answer, I’m sure he would have rectified this issue by now instead of turning here.

Thank you. You’re absolutely right, it’s hard but I’m letting my mental issues dictate my future and it sucks.
