wow-
It's clear that you have given this a lot of thought, and are really being honest with yourself (and bravely with others!) in trying to figure it all out. It is very scary to be in the world, and be authentic, and to trust. We are always risking rejection and hurt- whether we are invisible or seen. I think we all have to take the risks, to live our own truths. I don't want to live my life in fear.
Love the quote about trust, too.

ok- here is a risk : I'm going tell you what I think. I think hoarding and massive overeating are probably biological and emotional and environmental. I do think they are related in that both can be responses to fear and stress and anxiety and pain- but the solution becomes part of the problem. No one sets out to become a hoarder or to be too fat to live the life they want to live, but it happens. It takes tremendous courage to decide to be different/do different. You are doing that.
