Well, I have been struggling with depression, in part because younger son (stepson at that) is struggling with depression, PTSD, and he and his dad (and my dad, and my brother) have ADD. Son witnessed the deaths of his birthmother and sister in a very nasty auto wreck when he was 8, and has extra survivor's guilt cause he was sitting in his sister's seat because he had been hyper. about 1 1/2 years ago he attempted suicide. Son has been getting into some legal trouble trying to do things that ease his misery, and been sabotaging himself a lot, and just struggling hard through adolescence. Before I got on the Wellbutrin, I was having chronic pain that started about the time his suicide attempt happened because the stress would cause spasms in my biliary duct which felt like a heart attack - and I still make stones even without the gallbladder. Yuck! Had four stones removed last year and two attacks of pancreatitis before it was done. Every time younger son caused problems, my pain would skyrocket...which has been happening a lot. He's gotten two tickets for marijuana and two tickets for smoking, and has been failing in school and breaking the rules a lot, in part to prove what a bad kid he is to himself, and it breaks my heart and is soooo frustrating. Got stressed out enough this year that I would cry for hours, and somewhere along the line, my hair thinned out. Everybody but older son is in therapy, and it helps. Wellbutrin got me out of Pain Jail, though, for some reason or other and has helped with the depression. But I have some really bad days. But the diet has been working. I have gone from a 26 to somewhere between an 18 and a 16...in slightly less than 3 months. But because of all the stress, I am emotionally exhausted, and it is interfering with helping my son and stressing my very nice marriage. But son is going to visit his aunt for three weeks. Maybe I can catch my breath! |

Screen Name: Carla 49 I'm 5'8", born October 13, have dark brown eyes, dark brown (greying) hair. I have no pets (yet) and no children. I'm recently divorced, and still pissed off. I'm at my top weight of 215, and my goal is 150. My location is Ontario, Canada. My biggest challenges: I eat emotionally, I "forget" not to eat until after the binge, I can't resist "free" food, I love chocolate and wine. This time may not be different. I'm hoping that enough time has gone by since my post-breakup breakdown to stop finding excuses and get back into shape. Although it has been fascinating to watch myself grow and grow and grow... I'm hoping to find support here - and give in return. About me: A few years back I actually spent a long time as a very fit person: I ran a marathon and a lot of little races; I hiked regularly, including backpack camping; I spent lots of free time on my bike.. Then a foot injury slowed me down and started the depression, which was accelerated by an increasingly distant husband. The cherry on the sundae, of course, was the marriage breakup, followed by my personal breakdown. I'm definiteley on the mend, but not quite there yet. I'm glad to report that through it all I never totally lost my sense of humour, although it got to be rather warped for a while. |

USERNAME/REAL NAME: manicbelle/tiffani AGE: 26 BIRTHDAY: 08/19 MARITAL STATUS: married SPOUSE’S NAME: robert CHILDREN/AGES: none HOBBIES/INTERESTS: music, friends, family, movies, board games, shopping PETS: 5 month old mini schnauzer name Scruffy TOP WEIGHT: 360 CURRENT WEIGHT: 315 GOAL WEIGHT: 125 HEIGHT: 5' 6" EYE COLOR: brown HAIR COLOR: brown OCCUPATION: clerical GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION: apache junction, arizona WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST PROBLEM IN WEIGHT LOSS: I quit everything. WHAT IS DIFFERENT THIS TIME THAT WILL MAKE YOU SUCCESSFUL: I am not so sure I will be successful. ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE PEOPLE TO KNOW ABOUT YOU? I have manic depression, severe mood swings, and probably adult add. It is very hard for me to stick with anything, so any support is welcomed. I also tend to get very self involved, feeling lonely, and withdrawn. Sometimes I need an overly friendly person to pull myself out of it. I also have polycystic ovarian syndrome, which increases my depression when I think about it because it is causing infertility. I am not looking forward to my long journey, but am simply hoping I can get through it. |
Bio for little ghostlie / Meranda
DATE: August 16, 2005
USERNAME/REAL NAME: little ghostlie / Meranda AGE: 23 BIRTHDAY: May 28, 1982 MARITAL STATUS: Never married HOBBIES: reading, writing, researching, learning simple programming languages, exploring libraries and bookshops, watching movies PETS: My family has one male cat named Charcoal TOP WEIGHT: 267 CURRENT WEIGHT: 267 GOAL WEIGHT: 165 HEIGHT: 5'3" EYE COLOR: dark HAIR COLOR: dark GEOGRAPHIC LOCATION: rural Nevada (ie not Vegas, sorry!) WHAT IS YOUR BIGGEST PROBLEM IN WEIGHT LOSS: I'm disabled and often too tired (or in too much pain) to prepare high-quality meals with fresh ingreedients. WHAT IS DIFFERENT THIS TIME THAT WILL MAKE YOU SUCCESSFUL: I'm ready to take healthful eating with the measure of seriousness that it deserves. I need to eat to live, eating well should (and will) be a top priority. ANYTHING ELSE YOU WOULD LIKE PEOPLE TO KNOW ABOUT YOU? I was recently told by a therapist that I have probably been dysthymic for most, if not all, of my life. I have severe PMS that makes me suicidal the week before and during my menses if left untreated. When I was 13 I became ill with CFIDS (which I still have today). Needless to say, my illness contributes to an already depressed mood, resulting in "extreme" chronic depression. Between my physical and mental illnesses, it's hard to exercise and eat properly; I normally overeat and when I attempt to diet, it's very easy to go too far. I would love to meet people who have similar obstacles to overcome! |
