Hi all

I suffer from bouts of depression, not what I would call severe, but sometimes I really feel hopeless, and when those thoughts come I really struggle to eat healthily. I would love to make some friends on here who have or do suffer with depression so that we can support each other through the tough times. Not that we all sit around making each other more depressed though! I live in the UK, am 33 years old and have almost 100lbs to lose. I currently take 100mg sertraline a day and have had some councilling in the past.

    Ive suffered badly for just over 7 years up until recently when my 3rd round of therapy seemed to work. I still do have very down days - but I remind myself now they are just days - rather than weeks on end. Please feel free to add me as I completely understand.

    Hi, I understand what you are going through. I have had my own history with depression, and post pardum depression. Weight loss can really be a challenge. This will be my zillienth time trying to lose weight but the site works pretty well at keeping me focused. I hope it can do the same for you, and of course talking with everyone here will help to support you in your goals. :smile:
