Alternate coping strategies
I am in therapy for food dependency/childhood trauma. Right now I use food as a coping technique. I stuff my face when I’m sad/stressed/overwhelmed/angry, etc. This works for me because I can literally do it anytime or anywhere. Running late? Grab a box of crackers for the car. Kids being needy? Eat while you’re helping…

Body Clock Says Sleep!!
Am I the only one who is not yet adjusting to Daylight Savings Time? I have done nothing else to change my routine or eating habits, but getting up in the dark is killing me, and the extra hour of daylight at night goes to waste because I have no energy left. I am also hungry all of the sudden and for stuff I never want…

Being mentally exhausted
So many times, after a long day, we just don't have the energy or motivation to do anything. I found walking not only is a great form of exercise, but it helps mentally, the fresh air and beautiful surroundings. Actually relaxes the mind and helps to refocus. What are your ways to calm yourself.

Stressed about a lack of stressors?
My junior year was the year I was in treatment. When I came back, I had over 60 overdue assignments. I barely got by, and I think I got so used to having behind work in school. Now I’m obviously a senior, and for the entire first quarter, I just didn’t do my homework. I was behind on almost everything, and had so much to…

Winter Blues
Every year, around November the dark and cold just start to get to me. It makes me want to go into hibernation; I start sleeping more but never feel rested.

Struggling horrendously with sleep lately.
I want to keep building muscle and I know how important sleep is for that. I've taken Trazadone and Melatonin. But I'm lucky if I get 3 to 5 hours of sleep, but I really want 7 to 10. I've always been a night owl, but it seems harder to go to and stay asleep that past month so far than I can ever recall it being. I might…

Sleep Apnea
I have felt like a walking zombie for the past month or so. I've had my thyroid rechecked and it's good with the dose of meds I'm on. My dr wants me to do a sleep study/ test for sleep apnea and she said it can affect your ability to lose weight....which is a catch 22 since losing weight can help your sleep apnea :/ . Just…

High heart rate during sleep
I've been using a Withings sleep mat for some time now, and have discovered that my resting heart rate during sleep (71 average) is way higher than my resting heart rate (55 when sitting totally still) during the day.
