What's on your Monday Menu?

I am not annoyed at my restriction as such as it's expected, but I am frustrated that I have no interest in water and food of a morning.
My mental health issues are not related to the restriction as such. Overall, it's the least of my worries.

I didn't say talk to your MH support, although that could be an option.
You could talk to your nutrition/dietician/gp about ways you can address -- maybe you shift your expectations about what/when you need to eat/drink. I have noticed you've mentioned it a few times so a change up of something (even your internal expectations) might help!

Are you annoyed with too much restriction, or too little? And is it consistent, day-to-day, or does it vary?

Annoyed at too much of a morning is all. I would like to get as much liquid in of a morning as I can later in the day. I note many people seem to feel more restriction of a morning, it's not the end of the world though for now. I'm still new.
There will come a time that you wish you weren't hungry in the morning. There's no point in forcing it. As long as you hit your daily goals, don't sweat it.
But you should be drinking. If you have any acid, water is going to bother it. Try another zero calorie drink, and see if it's any better.

Drinking like water drinking world champion this morning (10.27am Tuesday here in Sydney), so go figure. I should complain more often :) Already had over 1 litre, I think that's 32 oz in your speak :)
I do often swap to a sugar free electrolyte drink (Powerade Mountain Blast is so good) when water is being difficult.
