(25M)I need to lose weight. But my life is a mess, and eating is how I tend to cope. What do I need to do?

I'm not going to go too much into my life. But I need to lose weight. Last I checked. I weighed 360 pounds. I'm 25 M about 6'1.

I'm not sure where is best to start. so I guess I'll start with this.

I have a few issues with mental health. Number one is diagnosed depression. I'm on medication. but it's VERY much affected by my overall life. and the other issues I have. Mostly regarding loneliness and boredom. If you really want to know. Just look at my post history. It's all there.

I've been trying to see a therapist. But a one hour session every few months isn't going to do shit. and neither is going and seeing a different person whenever that's available. But I digress.

My other issue is that my home life is a cluttered mess. I live in a very small. Very cluttered. Very hard to clean and maintain apartment. and because I'm a full time student. Most of my time and effort is going to just staying afloat academically. while dealing with my terrible sleep habits.

A lot of the time I end up eating out. Which I know is terrible. And I can cook. Healthy even. But I have fuck all for cooking space. and with how tired I am usually It's just easier.

On the plus sides. I walk everywhere. and in the summer I have a bike.

Last year when I was living back at home. I lost something like 40-50 pounds. But that was a situation where I could go to a gym/see a personal trainer. And not have to worry about a lack of cooking/cleaning space. I also had my family there to help.

Unfortunately. towards the end of my stay back in my own personal hell/hometown. Things got stressful and I ballooned right back.

so I know I CAN do it. I'm just not sure what I need to do to fix my lifestyle.
