Fuck the gym why don't you hit the kitchen first.

Yeah, no shit.
Your parents should be put down for being so fucking irresponsible.
Actually eat something anytime. Count your calories, lift.
Eat a shit ton until you weight at least 145, if you lift and don't do cardio (burns off any good fat you have left and makes you lose weight) you should be looking skinny strong.
Here you go
Gym is fun. You think otherwise because your head is filled with demotivating thoughts. Just go to the gym despite those thoughts, it'll become a habit eventually and you'll so it without thinking.
Until you prove to yourself that you can go to the gym, you won't feel motivated. It's impossible to feel motivated to do something you believe yourself incapable of doing. It's not impossible to do it anyway.

I had (have) the same problem as op, but I find the hard part is forcing yourself to eat, going to the gym is relatively easy, and you can always drink some caffeine and be good to go
lifting is the best medicine for depression. It'll make a man out of you and toughen you up a bit. You'll get so fired up about it that you will want to eat

This is a problem. If you force yourself to go to the gym you'll be lifting just to get it out of the way and won't really be pushing yourself

Start by getting rid of the thought that you "can't" make yourself, you just choose not to
You have the ability, so use it
Also what >>37613829 said
t. depressed guy who still manages to lift multiple times a week

You are not under weight everyone else is over weight. You should just drink water when you are hungry until full. Then float away in the wind, away from the haters.
