Hey guys! Feel free to add me. Ive been reading through the thread and such great insight and stories! You guys literally are my role models. As sad as this kinda sounds, it's nice to know you're not alone. It feels more comforting to know there's other people like me. Hope all of you guys have been having happy days and I…

How did your psych appt go? Hope all is well

Wow Jamie congrats! This is really good to hear!

I always try to meditate or do some yoga. Have you tried either? This will definitely help with any depression you may experience throughout the day. Walks help too but try meditation or yoga. It always helps me!

Wow thanks for that tidbit.

Did anyone ever in this forum say get off meds?

Okay so I'm a very very big supporter of meditation & in case you guys would like some assistance or are new to it you guys should check out the app Headspace. It really really helps) I just got home from work & boy I was feeling down down down but now I feel so much better after my quick 10 minutes of meditating. If any…

VERY WELL SAID

YES GUYS LISTEN TO THIS GREAT ADVICE! :)

HONESTLY, I quit on my own. (obviously not cold turkey, weaned off) I WAS DONE I MEAN DONE with feeling like *kitten* even AFTER MY MEDS. I've been on everything & all types of dosages. My depression/anxiety was so unreal that doctor's have to prescribe me meds that weren't even for depression because they were running out…

GUYS YES! THIS IS THE MENTALITY TO HAVE! :)

Lol no worries, I just read that & was like WHOA! Lol. I see what you're saying. I hope you feel better though. That must be terrible. :( Have you tried yoga or meditation alondside with exercising. Also, do you weight train? Just from personal experiences I feel like weight training helped more with my dep-anx. Just…

I'm on the same boat as you! I'm finally back into the rhythm of things after about a year of not being active. next year (1/26) Is my 25th so I'm trying to lose weight by then. I'm Sandy & I'm on this site all the time. I always interact with anyone who posts stuff so feel free to add me (this goes for everyone). We got…

FEEL FREE TO ADD ME GUYS! I always update my profile & am very interactive in the site. :)

Okay I really enjoyed your post until you gave out false I formation regarding exercise is only a "temporary" fix for mental health. Yeah your endorphins may have a fixed schedule but the effect of fitness are far more than just endorphins. Healthy body healthy mind. Just to jot down some effects (which I can provide…

@Stellarstell losing weight / becoming a healthier you will not only help your cardiovascular system but also your depression. Yes exercise releases dopamine/endorphins post work-out because you put your body through "stress" a healthy amount of stress therefore as a self-defense our bodies release these hormones. Trust…

I don't think it's rude but I think that's tacky imo. If you're going to have a party then make sure you have everything you need & if you don't invite less people.

Hi there! My name is Sandy I'm not 25 but I'm 24 & I'm actually really looking forward to my 25th birthday hence why I'm on here. Next year is my 25th & I want to look my best! It's been a while where I have been able to celebrate the way I wanted to look but next year is my year to shine & this year is to grind. :)

wow we're in the same boat (the whole hate being over 200). I know once I'm 199 it's all down hill from there (in a good way lol) Message me! :)

I wont lie I am a work in progress! 1st pic about two years ago.

Ugh I really want to wear crop tops again! I used to wear them about 5 years ago but with high waist shorts (always had a mini pudge) now I can't even do that. My MAIN goal is to be able to wear low waisted bottoms and a crop top & feel comfortable!

BOUT IT! How do you wanna do this? Are going to make a group? Well I am going to add ya & message ya to find out more details! I'm Sandy btw :)

Adding you right now! I recently fell in rut & I am trying to get back into rhythm of things. I do a lot of strength training feel free to message me & ask me questions! I'm Sandy btw :)

Anyone can feel free to add me as well! I focus a lot on strength training & power. I'm an exercise science major so I am willing to share my knowledge with anyone who wants to get into strength training (especially women). I'm 23 & I am really sweet. <3 :) My boyfriend is a phenomenal physical trainer so I always have…

Hey ShyCush6! I am on the same boat as you! I am definitely going to add you but just to give a little info on myself, about a year ago I was training hard. I was strong & steady however about 6 months ago I just little by little stopped :( I officially want to get back into rhythm of things & I know if I stay on MFP & try…

Free weights always. But the key is having good form. Make sure you have someone double check your form :)
