You said that everything good in you had died, but it hasn't. Qualities such as honesty, humility, and vulnerability are good qualities, and you have those. The trend in our society seems to be egomania. If all your good qualities were gone, I don't think you would be capable of honest, sensitive self-reflection. Remember and appreciate the good in yourself.
Also, I'm not a doctor, but it sounds like you've developed Anorexia. It gives you a sense of control over your life, but wrecks your health. You're not doing yourself any favors there. Most likely, you will survive all of this depression, so you might as well take care of your physical health. You don't want to have health problems later on when, perhaps, the depression has diminished.
Take care of yourself. You are going to survive. Best wishes.
