HI, have visited here before on other sections of the 3FC's. Haven't been here in awhile though. The depression section fits because although I'd always known I had depression and ANXIETY
all of my life......about 6 mos ago I had some whopper panic attacks and felt worse than I ever had. Well..... that may not be true, I've felt pretty lousy before but always thought I could 'get through it'.
This last time, I'd had it--went to see a doc, and got on Lexapro. I finally feel sane.
However I had really let the ole' diet and exercise slide (plus menopause, plus age), and then once put on Lex. gained yet another 8# or so. Inching up toward 200 and I'm pretty short. Nothing fits. Have to stop having ice cream every darn night.
Also, I always had WAY low blood pressure, and last time at the doc--high. CHOL is through the roof.... AND I was a gestational diabetic, which means I'm not diabetic NOW, but have a bigger chance of getting to be diabetic, given my age and weight now.
I filled out the BIO sticky,...so there ya have it. I'm ready to do something before I kill myself with this.
