  • I actually do have the same problem. My dad passed away in October and it was the biggest shock of my life. After the initial shock, I lost about 8 lbs and then started the guilt and depressed eating. When did you lose your dad?
  • hi, i am new and i can understand how you feel, i am an american in pakistan and i lost my mother last june --she was in texas and it has killed me and the depression is being fed by food and food here consists of bread,rice ,potatoes and pasta--nothing good for anyone and especially me being a diabetic...i am here if you need someone to talk to, hang in there, i know its hard now but it will get better. I am sorry for your loss. when did your dear dad pass? may GOD always guide you in your time of need.

  • My heartfelt sympathy goes out to all of you. I lost both parents when I was very young. You might want to look into some kind of grief counseling. Maybe support instead of food.
