@dsboohead Thank You for your support! ❤️

@aokoye There are therapists at my University, but they aren't really good with scheduling. I've tried making appointments there many times, but I've always got emails saying my appointment needed to be postponed till weeks or months later, so I stopped trying. I'll probably end up taking the bus/train to Austin and go…

@kshama2001 I'm glad I went back too. ❤️

@Phirrgus Thank You! Yes, everyone's responses have been so nice to read. I've started looking things up and I downloaded an meditation app someone suggested last night, and it was great! I'm going to try and use that as much as possible.

@saraonly9913 I'll look into it.

@Anita4548 Thank You for telling me this. It makes me feel better knowing I'm not alone. ❤️

@nowine4me @emmamcgarity I'll look into those podcasts. I've never listened to any, and I don't know if my attention span can handle that, but I'll try.

@InsertFunnyUsernameHere Yes, that sounds like a plan, and that's kinda what I've been trying to do recently. I'm taking 5 classes this semester, I'm doing yoga almost everyday and I'm wanting to join a club at my University (not sure which one yet). I've also met a classmate who is, somewhat, going through the same things…

@ChrysalisCove Thank You. I'm happy you're doing well. ❤️

@OneRatGirl Two years ago, I had an experience like the one you had. The whole "Okay, I'm going to stop my unhealthy habits and just do something" thing. And I did it for about four months, lost almost 50 lbs... but then my cousin, who was helping me, moved to another state, school was starting up again, I had hit a…

@kshama2001 I'm taking them at my University's recreational center. They have sessions everyday in different levels. I'm doing "Intro to Yoga" and "Mindful Yoga". I don't know what the difference between those two are, but they're pretty great. I've been able to sleep better because of them.

@msalicia07 Thank You for the support. ❤️

@Phirrgus Thank You for telling me about your daughter. Sometimes I forget I'm not the only one going through this kind of thing. It just seems like everyone I encounter seems so... normal. Like, there's nothing wrong in the world — especially thin people. As for the mirror thing, I looked into it for the first time in…

@apullum We'll see. I'm still not sure — I'll have to give it some thought.

@MeganReid1991 Thank You. ❤️

@ItsAJourny Thank You! ❤️

@MeganReid1991 I wish I was more patient. When I don't see results immediately, I freak out and get so depressed. Especially since I've been struggling for years. But yes, my University offers yoga 4 times a week, so I'll dip my toes in and try it out for awhile. I went to one session and it was nice. I slept well that…

@apullum Thank You. Yes, there's group counseling, but I don't know. It sounds very nerve wrecking to me. I'm very anti-social, but I will definitely ask them about other local therapists. I can't believe that didn't cross my mind.

@guil0095 What's it about? Is it a fiction book? Thanks for the support ❤️

@Running2Fit Yeah, I figured. I wish I wasn't this way, you know? But, I'm going to try Yoga and just see where that takes me... Though, I tried going to a yoga class on my own once a week ago, and I couldn't even make it inside without panicking and running off. I have such a low self-esteem. I saw mirrors and thin people…

@apullum Perhaps. I currently live in a small college town, so I don't think I'll find anything here, but Austin is 30 mins away from where I am. Maybe, I'll go somewhere there.

@apullum I have tried going to my University Counseling Center, but when I had gone for the first time and set up an appointment for the next, it always took them months for them to see me again, or they kept rescheduling, so I just stopped going all together.

@lili200 I'm not sure.

@Alatariel75 Yes, I'll be sure to purchase one soon! :)

@CMB1979 Okay, I'll give it a go! :) @pamfgil Sounds good. I'll see what I can find. ^^ Thank You!

@JeromeBarry1 Yes, I'm going to ask him asap! :)

@JeromeBarry1 Ohhhh. Well, I was using measuring cups and spoons the first four months, but then I moved in with my Dad and he doesn't have any of those things, so I started to eye everything... @usmcmp Well, honestly, I'm getting pretty bored of my workouts. I've been doing the same thing for a year. I've always been fond…

@usmcmp Oh, I see. That makes sense. And, what about my exercise routine? Should I continue with cardio or....? :o

@malibu927 I use MyFitnessPal to determine how many calories I'm eating. @usmcmp No, I've never weighed my food before... does it really make a difference? :o
