Desperately Need Support

in Introduce Yourself
I'm returning here after having tried the site for about a month then deleting my account due to depression brought on by low self-esteem and little support at home. I didn't know how to receive motivation here and was afraid to ask for support from anyone. Today, I'm back and willing to ask for the help I need. Please...I'm tired of being alone, fat, tired, out of shape, and muddling through with little to no support. If anyone here is willing to be part of my cheering-section, I'm willing to return the favor. All I know for sure is that what I've been doing hasn't been working.

    I hear ya! I am back again as well, after a unsuccessful first attempt. Friends do help! I also suffer from depression, and would be willing to offer what support I can! I continue to stumble through this, but I figure as long as I take more steps forward than backwards... then I am headed in the right direction. I will send you a friend request! :flowerforyou:

Now I am back and am trying to do this not only for me but for my 2 small children a better relationship with my husband. I would love to help support you if you return the favor. I'm looking for all the help I can get!
