Default i did it

today i went for my forst appointment at the mental health clinic for my depression, i know my weight gain has alot to do with this aswell as many other things . i went in very scared came out somewhat feeling id started on a right path to help me get better and to get the help ive been putting off for so long..this was the 3rd time id re scheduled to go
i burst into tears half way through but i think admitting to myself i need help was a good thing and they were very good
and im back there next week and am scheduled for 3 months of sessions to begin with
im actually feeling positive about it all and that i done a good thing
and it will hopefully help me too with my weight loss programme!

That's great news, lesleydee - it is so hard to admit to someone else that we need help; you've taken a hugely positive step!

Let us know how you get on!

GO YOU! Seeking help -- or sometimes doing anything at all can be so hard when you're depressed. Kudos!
