I'm struggling with depression. It isn't easy to admit it. I'm on meds for it. I have so many health problems and I'm just not eating right. This is such a rough season in life. Waiting for insurance approval to find out if I have cancer. I'm not looking for pity. Just haven't shared with my family how much I'm struggling. They all see me as the strong one. I'm not. Not a bit. One day at a time... one moment at a time... this too shall pass.

I hope you will get through this and lose the weight you want to. Health is the only thing you can depend on.

I have dealt with depression most of my life. Feeling good or feeling bad can be a positive feedback loop, so your mind can play a significant roll in mental health. Family support is also really important. As for the possibility of cancer, cut sugar completely out your diet as that can potentially feed cancer cells. Taking care of yourself is taking care of your family.

I don’t know exactly what your scenario actually is but the waiting is the worst part. People tend to bury themselves before they get all the tests back. Take a breath. Step back. Talk with members of your family. Be realistic but don't let the still vague future drag you to the bottom. Right now be proactive, arm yourself with information regarding the steps you might take now to loose some weight, make yourself as strong as you can, concentrate on developing a plan for a diet that is as healthy as possible. And, drastically cutback on added sugars and processed foods. The community here has many people in it that are dealing with cancer in either themselves, their families or they me be survivors. Much empathy here. Feel free to talk.

One moment at a time is exactly the right mantra. I wish you well…

After experiencing non-stop health problems, I was particularly down one day, and told my son I wish I were as strong as he was. He responded, “Mom, you’re the strongest person in every room. You just happen to be the well muscled weight lifter that’s always maxed out. Exhausted, quivering, sweating, ready to throw in the towel, but just look at how much weight you have to carry.

Hang in there. I too struggle with major depression and anxious distress. I understand the meds and I too use to eat and drink my feelings. I don't have any good advice but life is not fair. It's a mental challenge, but you can do it. I personally use exercise to help calm my anxiety. I hope you beat all of the medical issues and find peace.
