I think you need to talk to your t about the eating issue. Medication cannot make you feel confident in your skin or allow you to eat without guilt. Those thoughts will not absolve themselves because you're taking medication. It's something you have to come to terms with. Learning to cope with the triggers and working on medication treatment (So you're taking stuff that doesn't trigger you) would probably be the most beneficial.

Having your t send notes to your permanent t may help, too. That way they can continue the treatment course that you're currently working on.
I'd gotten much better about my meds at about the same time every night, i was really hard at first with the switch to summer schedule. It just doesn't feel like they're doing anything.

I have been talking to him, but yesterday around the time of the OP the depressed feelings hit me like a ton of bricks and that always just makes it worse.

That I will for sure do.
