I just can't fill myself up, and the hunger pains now are beyond painfull

it needs to be said: it should be such a simple thing to fill up your body with nourishing food, but thanks to a mixture of being a fussy eater and a bad cook, it eludes me.

(bit of a rant post here, but feel free to comment)

Start with things you know you can trust.
Avoid things you know have made you sick in the past.

Being a bad cook shouldn't make you sick most things are just fine eaten raw or cooked to a pulp ( excluding meat).
Maybe time to get a professional opinion?

It is possible that your stomach is not telling you that you are full. You need to do a calorie count. That will tell you if you are eating enough to sustain.

I am not a brilliant cook either and have difficulty following published recipes so seldom do, but have learned, over time, to cook a few simple dishes in which I can vary the ingredients so providing an interesting varied diet. Perhaps you can do similar? Avoid the bad cook and consider what you do cook best. Then concentrate on varying things on that theme. In that way you will gain confidence and steadily build up your list of meals that you do cook well.

Now he is Vegan, he eats his vegetables. I'd take jen's advice: it makes sense.
