    I can really relate to this. Thanks for sharing.

    I found therapy essential after getting out of an abusive relationship, and again last year when the pandemic was too much for my usual coping strategies.
    I'm glad someone understands.. at the same time I'm sad that anyone else has went through it. It's so hard to break a lifelong pattern and negativity. I can relate to covid. I lost my job and the job was great because it was very focused.. so 12hrs/day 4-6 days/week my mind was occupied. Even though my home life was still chaotic I felt like it's something I was good at. Then it was taken away. I did therapy after my sons father.. then stayed single for years only to end up with the same "type" but even worse. So 4 years solo again and at 44 I'm content with dying alone. I'm glad that you realized that you were having trouble and got the help you need. I did do therapy and it helped some things.. but when I became aware of some of the deeper issues then I really started to doubt myself as a person. Wish you the best of luck!

    My toxic, alcoholic, abusive ex-boyfriend, who felt threatened whenever I looked good.
    I lost 270lbs of dead weight the day we broke up back in February, and another 20 since abandoning his bad eating/drinking habits. Only 56lbs to go!

    Now... I eat according to MY plan, schedule, and goals. I workout until I'M tired and ready to go home. I surround myself with friends who support and encourage my journey - and a lot of them have jumped back on the health wagon with me. I'm breaking strength PR's, trying new lifts/workouts, AND my doctor is reducing my thyroid meds. Not only do I look and feel so much better, my mental health is dramatically improved. There is so much hope where there was once only fear and anxiety.

    Now, I'm invincible.

    HELL-F'ING-YEAH, that's straight up gangsta, booh. I truly love reading stories like this, motivates the fire outta me and makes me wanna move even more weight, run farther, cycle faster. Chew nails and spit tacks, rapid fire.

    Congrats on being the master of your own destiny and taking ZERO shiz from the world or anyone in it, for that matter. YOU ARE AN INSPIRATION.

    Show UP.

    Line UP.

    GET SOME and STAY HARD.

    Repeat the process.

    My husband jokes that I'm getting too hot for him and will occasionally say, "omg you look so hot, want me to make you fried rice? Please don't leave me." I just laugh and say, "no thank you, I love you."
