Devon struggles with being generally negative. He binges to avoid getting fat and being unlovable. After the breakup, Devon has been bingeing a couple times every week, to be exact. He has been really disliking himself since since he discovered that Marcus had already been lying. He overate as a result of this, which made him feel worse regarding himself and motivated him to work off the excess calories.

Devon has a history of migranes and heartburn, and she now takes medication for both conditions. Devon is a student presently pursuing a career as a software developer.

Devon missed a few days of work due to illness shortly after the breakdown. He thought it was ridiculous, but his job required focus, and he was completely incapable of it. Devon has resumed his job. Yet to be quite honest, I still find it difficult to be involved in anything.

He has a somewhat zombie-like feeling as he goes through the movements. He didn’t live with anybody else, but he spent most evenings at his house, so returning to his apartment alone made him feel incredibly lonely.

Due of his difficulty accepting that his friends were unaware that his boyfriend was cheating on him, Devon ignores them most of the time. They are Marcus’ friends as well. He’d feel stupid if they did find out. because he was ignorant of something that everyone else was. Every time he considers things that way, he feels so disgusted. These kinds of attitudes set off a vicious cycle whereby overeating leads to self-hatred, which in turn leads to even more self-hatred.
