Get some of this tomato soup down your neck. That'll cheer you up a bit. It's cheap and easy to make. You can either make it via the hob and oven, or just chuck all the ingredients into a soup maker.
The pesto sauce and Welsh Rarebit are nice optional extras to this dish.
And BTW, don't add any salt to these. Mr Ramsay is a salt addict. You don't have to be.

I can give you another recipe for tomorrow, if you like.

Get some takeaway comfort food.
Watch a few of your favourite dvds on the sofa or in bed. 🎉
Then remember some of your happiest memories and all the positives in your life.
How much better off you are now than you were when living with parents.
Or working in a high stress office surrounded by the type of legal sharks that belong in the ocean, far away from people who don't want to donate a limb or a few pints of their blood.
Alternatively you could compare your life with half the students of TSR whom you would not want to swap places with in a million years.
Students that are fed up after years of having to: share a bathroom with 4+ housemates, spend less than £40 a week on shopping and work multiple jobs to survive financially, pay eyewateringly high accomodation bills, live free with toxic waste parents, get dragged to church/other worship premises to 1-3 times a week to hear horrid fire&brimstone rants.

Is your weight gain because of increases to your body fat % or putting on muscle doing heavy lifting?
Could be that drinking too much wine and sparking sodas with a high sugar content is increasing your risk of bloating.
As well as piling on extra calories that you don't need and have to burn off to avoid gaining weight.
What home workouts are you doing?
If your bf is behaving worse towards you than your parents ever did when you were growing up, it's time to get ready to move in with a friend who has a spare bed.
Or find some part time work so that you will be able to afford to leave, end the relationship and move into a houseshare or emergency accomodation provided by your local council.

Nice? That's the understatement of the year! It's delicious!
If you have a soup maker (your boyfriend can afford to buy you one) it's not really cooking. It's just feeding the machine some stuff that gets transformed into edible heaven.

Youtubers like Emi Wong, Bailey Brown and Gabi Whited have great short exercise workouts.
Most can be done at home on the sofa or on a chair.
Quite a few of the morbidly obese crime survivors I've been helping to lose weight have dropped 9-11 dress sizes, losing at least 130lbs though a combination of youtube workouts and maintaining a daily calorie deficit of at least 600 calories.
Try to cut down on the salt, high sugar soft drinks and booze.
Drinking more still unflavoured water and eating more protein & pulses instead of unhealthy ultra-processed meals loaded with carbs.
Fresh salads and fruits instead of packaged snacks containing dairy or heavily salted items.

Same with multi-cookers that can also make soups.

i wouldnt say im fat, by society's standards im still underweight, but the extra 5 pounds bother me. i can literally feel the extra fat on my body, in places where there was no fat before, and it really grosses me out.
tbh ive been living in a slight calorie deficit since high school and always maintained my weight. until now. so its really annoying. maybe its the side effects. or just no exercise etc.who knows
will check out the youtubers, thanks. i also really wanna start taking my dog out for walks again, im sure that will help too. its just that ive been too scared to lately so my boyfriend had to do it instead

Have you got anyone you can speak to about it in person?
also how old is your dog now? I remember when he was a puppy 
Until this week I was doing relatively good
I've had a severe chest infection the past week which has wiped me out but antibiotics are helping
