How do I prove to others it makes sense.
I am overweight and have thought of a way to help me lose my fat. I have told friends and hubby expecting support but got told I was not thinking straight. How do I show them that I am and that it makes sense?
My plan is to cut the fat off my stomach. Once it is gone I will be fine. Now I feel like I am all alone and everyone is angry at me. I feel like no one cares and that they are all against me. You are my last hope for support and please let me know how to explain it to them. Susan |

No it doesn't make sense. If you are going to have a Doctor perform the surgery and your health is fine that's a different story. If you plan on doing it yourself, be sure you have a good life insurance and burial plans already prepared. Don't do anything so dangerous. Diet and exercise are the best way to get rid of excess weight. |

Diet and exercise work if you are not on anti depressants that make you keep the weight on. I also do exercise as often as I can, I have to depend on others for drives to the gym, but do walk my dog daily. I am not doing this as a Suicidal plan, this is not for me to die, it is for me to be skinny. As far as eating, I have stopped eating as of today. I will only drink water until I am thin. I guess you are like everyone else and decide to be so harsh to me. Why I even try to get help I don't know. I mean the professionals tell me to and when I reach out I get slapped in the face. Guess that is what I deserve as I was born to be abused, that is why god made me. I will keep my ideas and thoughts to myself and realize they all lied. Reaching out for help is not helpful! |

You are acting like a very unhappy person. Stop doing that. If you are wanting sympathy, I have none for someone who gives up so easily and blames everyone else for it. You got slapped as you put it for posting you were going to cut the fat off your own body. That's ridiculous and you know it. |

I got more help from the crisis line than from you. I am going to the ER to get help from a doctor and posible IP. How dare you say I am feelign sorry for myself. You have no idea what I have been through in my life and how much fighting I have done to stay alive. Yes I have my moments but that does not make me less a person. I do blame others for my depression in life, I blame the *******s who raped a 7 year old, the ex husband who abused me physically emotionally and sexually and also the family who abused me. You see they were wrong to hurt me but I am trying to get better and working on it. After talking to you the other professionals I will say you would have been better off saying " please go talk to someone IRL " and explain why. I will say my reasons for wantign to do what I want to do still make sense oh well I will only use this site for advice on my dog. |

We cannot read minds here. You told us nothing of your abuse and You should have since that makes me think that's part of the problem. We don't have the answers for everything here, just suggestions and you did not tell your whole situation. I hope you get better. |

Especailly with all of your past and pain that you endured. This to me, this is a product of what has happened to you in the past. |

Mogran,
You are not thinking clearly if you think you can cut the fat off yourself, and/or starve yourself into losing weight. You are also not thinking clearly if you feel that everywhere you turn, including here, for help, nobody is providing 'support' for your thinking. Or approval, or encouragement. That you find US being unreasonable, only confirms that you do not have any understanding of what you say, and the implications of same. When you don't hear what you want to hear, it is not okay to turn on any person trying to understand and help you. All we have to go on I what you write, and when you turn tables and start to blame us for not having the answers you want, you are way out of line. I am glad that you have at least enough clarity of thought, to phone a crisis line, and hopefully those in charge of your care, or those who care about you, are aware of these thoughts you have of hurting yourself. I cannot see any recourse for you but to trust your doctors, and talk to them. Perhaps if you have been in therapy in the past, it might be something to consider now, at least until you are emotionall strong enough to know that your behaviour is very dangerous. Please talk to someone face to face, and soon. |

No one in the world understands spousal abuse until the have been there. Like you my first marriage was a living hell. I was far from home and the monster I was married too treated me horribly mentally, physically, emotionally and sexually. I have been there, but I got out.
I'm not a professional anything. I just know this idea of cutting the fat off your body tells me you have deep issues with self esteem. Now that you've told us about your life I see why you may feel you are worthless. You're not. You're here for a reason and I wish I could help you. You're bitter. You're allowed to be. There is a good side to all this. You know you need help and you are seeking help. That's a start. You have to believe in yourself. You have to know that people care for you. You're not alone. Go to your Doctor and tell him how you feel about the weight and he may change your meds. I would never hurt you intentionally, but the thing about the body fat threw me. Please don't even consider doing that. There is help.:) |

You need mental health, not phsycial health first before you do anything. Your mental thinking is not correct. Sorry but blunt. They do a suction of the fat if you meet certain guidelines.But honestly, you need to be happy with who you are, then work on weight issues |

Well I went to hospital and seen a medical doctor. They did not send me for a psych assessment. All they did is put me on another med... Adavan? It is for anxiety. I am also referred to Access Mental Health just waiting on call from them. I am feeling like it was just dope her up and send her on her way. Life goes on I guess |
||||
|
|
|
||||

If you have been referred to a mental health orgaization, that is to help assess your mental health needs.
Adavan is a drug for anxiety. With the mental health referral, and a prescription for anxiety medication, those are two good steps, in the right direction to help you. I don't agree that you were just handed a script and sent on your way. There will be followups, and possible treatment recommended. I hope that you take advantage of what has become available to you, to assist you in making better choices, other than the solutions you had to your problems in the first post. Good luck, I hope you get the help you need. |

You should stop being so negative. Give the meds a chance. Ativan is for anxiety. Take it and see if you feel better. |

After reading this thread I must apologize! I don't know what happened to make me be so rude, I had no right. Please forgive me for it all. Normally I just let others talk and don't say anything in my defense as I was taught that was being proudful. I am so angry at myself at the moment and am so sorry. Hope everyone is having a good night Susan |

I have a very good and close friend, he was sitting one day in his living room, his life had fell apart, friends, family were all gone, he felt he had nothing, and no reason to go on. He was in law enforcement and sat with his service weapon in his hand, he debated a good part of the day about shooting his self, but did not want to be a bother to someone who had to clean up the mess. Lucky for him, ( he did not think he really had a problem) and did not see how medication could help him. But it did, that with counseling got him thinking straight again. |

I have heard from the Access Mental Health People, apparently the doc in ER wanted me on the DPT wait list (I am all ready), so she referred me to another place to get help from a psych doc. I called and there is a 2-3 month wait. I also called my family doc as my medicine the ER doc gave me is almost gone and they can not fit me in until next week. I also found out the doctor diagnosed me as paranoid. This is so frustrating, I am doing what everyone tells me but it seems to take so long to get help. Susan |

How many Ativan did they prescribe you?More than 10?
If you are still having so many problems and need further help,can you get back to the hospital?Or maybe a phone call to a hotline? The paranoia is not a bad thing,just another diagnostic criteria.Depression along with the paranoia,what else has been listed? Please,fill me in.:) KBC |
