I'm 40. I have been battleing my weight for 20 years. I have always been either losing or gaining. Down 40 up 20, down 10 up 30... Today I am 40 pounds overweight again. I don't eat regular food anymore. I don't want 3 meals a day. I only want to eat anything bad for me. It is like I am purposely killing myself. I will eat an entire box of doughnuts instead of meals for a day. I will eat french fries all day long instead of meals... I cannot seem to shake this habit. When I start on a new diet I am successful to a point-- I re-train myself and force down real food. I can only do it for a short time though before the above pattern returns.
I also feel like I am not normal in general. I have started to notice that I have trouble conversing and there seem to be more blank stares at me than ever before. I actually feel like I am going crazy. I can't think clearly any more at all. I am completely unable to focus on anything. I shy away from social situations. I am generally unhappy all the time now. I have diagnosed myslef with depression, anxiety, ADD, but have yet to go to a Dr. I am worried they will throw a bottle of pills at me and that it will open up another can of worms. I want to go to someone who will look at my entire person and I want to be a different person. What kind of Dr. will do that?
