Hi Lady, and Welcome !! (Joisey chick's rock !!
)
Ditto's to what the ladies already told you. The hardest thing to do is to make that first visit to the doctor. It took me YEARS and I'm sorry now that I waited. It gets so much better after you get everything off your chest. But!! remember this, if you do not feel good about the doctor you are seeing, SEEK ANOTHER. There are so many to choose from. Find one you are comfortable with.
Your post obviously tells us and you that you want help and that is a GOOD THING!!! it really is.
Nelie is right, don't listen to other people and don't let them drag you down in the dumps with them because thats what they are doing wether they know it or not. Get rid of all the negative in your life.
I don't think there is one of us who can say that they never felt like they didn't want to have relations w/their partner b/c of weight. Well at least I've never met anyone who hasn't felt like that (heavy or skinny, doesn't matter). When you don't feel attractive or good about yourself then how can you expect others to want you....right??
Hang in there sweetie, your moving in the right direction. I am also in NJ so if I can help you find a Dr. PM me and if I can help, I will.
