Hello all. My name is Krystal. I've been here probably 3-4 times. I struggle with depression, anxiety, PTSD and ADD. I go through several low points in which I put care into nothing. I eat poorly. I don't eat breakfast, I drink lots of sugary coffee, I try to eat lunch, but it's usually higher on the calorie range. Dinner is usually whatever, but a large portion. And I am a sucker for sweets and desserts. I love sugar. I don't drink soda, I've been drinking lots of water lately. I just treat my body poorly. I need to get into a routine and get inspired so I can get up and do something about my weight. I need to feel good about myself again. I'd love to have some friends who will help inspire me :)

    Hi. I can relate to the ADD, anxiety and PTSD, thanks to an amazing husband and a killer therapist I got a pretty good handle on it. Being a manager is hard, since people still overstimulate me. Working out and eating right has helped me as well. I sleep better, my anxiety is manageable and my ADD well it will always be my trouble child. Hang in there, it took me 20 years just to figure out what was wrong with me and almost twice as long to find the courage to want to fix it. You are halfway there...you can do this.

    Thank you! I finally have an amazing boyfriend and my new therapist seems to know what she is doing. Still working on the right concoction for my medication, but it's getting there. Thanks for your kind words!

    Heya! I'm one you can talk to about anxiety and depression. I'm still dealing with it, incredibly less than it was initially, but I can lend an ear if you ever need to talk to someone. I sent a friend request in case you need some uppity motivation!
