    Overweight depressed
    What the F?? That girl gem seems to really have it bad! She makes it hard for me to feel sorry for myself! I have been depressed for a long time. I have a lot going for me but yet I have so little. I just keep getting fatter and people who know me just keep putting me down. I don't know what to do. I am always on a diet but never seem to lose any weight. I just keep on gaining. I weigh 225 pounds and I am 5'5. I have never been this big! I am with someone who says that they love me but yet they seem to be incapable of talking to me or showing me just how much I mean to them! I have a 2 year old son and a 23 year old daughter. If it weren't for them I might seriously consider taking my own life. Someone please help me! I don't know what to do! I want to lose weight but I can't control my cravings and appetite! Please help!

    I am somewhat lost in this sentence(s)


    I have been depressed for a long time. I have a lot going for me but yet I have so little.
    Still having difficulty understand this.

    I just keep getting fatter and people who know me just keep putting me down. I don't know what to do. I am always on a diet but never seem to lose any weight. I just keep on gaining. I weigh 225 pounds and I am 5'5. I have never been this big! I am with someone who says that they love me but yet they seem to be incapable of talking to me or showing me just how much I mean to them! I have a 2 year old son and a 23 year old daughter.

    What has your medical diagnosis been up to this point?

    Didn't you mention to us, when my friend and I visited you a couple of weeks ago, that you had lost a lot of weight, KBC?

    So, it seems to me, that you would have some really good insight and experience as far as how weight, mood and being depressed or not are related.

    Correct?

    I am not sure which thread I read but the woman's screen name was Gem. I have been diagnosed with hypothyroidism, OCD (because I can't stop thinking about food), and GERD. I am also going to school for nursing. I graduate this August. I know that I am under a lot of stress and I am sure that it does play into what is happening to me right now. I just don't know how to make my mind stop thinking and craving food.
