  • Sounds like you are suffering from depression. Here is some information about it from NHS Direct: http://www.nhsdirect.nhs.uk/articles/article.aspx?articleID=127 Have a read and make an appointment to see your GP.
  • What's going on in your life right now? Are you in a relationship? If so how's it going? Where do you live, what's your diet like? Can't say how to help without details.
  • You know you must go to your family doctor for some tests(blood test,urine etc.)...it could be something simple but why go another day feeling like this. Be good to yourself and make an appt. and in the mean time I am sending you lots of hugs and kisses xoxoxoxox
  • It sounds like depression. See your doctor to make sure it is not a medical condition. Be open and honest.. the key to a good doctor.. is good communication.. do not be embarrassed.. the more information you can give.. the more helpful you will be in getting good care. Binge eating is a tool for comfort but it is a most unhealthy tool.. that fools you until it has you more unhappy with yourself and further into the depression.. turn away from that at once. This word "depression" is spread so thick nowadays because it is a serious and growing epidemic that our society is going to see more and more of. You are not alone.. you are not a freak or anything less than so many millions of people around the world. You are probably overwhelmed.. stuck in a rut.. there are many things that could bring depression on.. but how you deal with it.. is key. Life has become so hectic, fast paced and people are overworked, overstressed and overwhelmed. More broken homes, less people to rely on to hold you together when you are in need, more chaos to deal with.. so much negativity being cast on the news.. there is not enough room to list the many things that can bring us down. It takes a strong amount of courage and conviction to yourself to change these habits you have developed during this time. You must do it for your own sake. The longer you wait, the harder it will be. Instead of hiding and curling into yourself. Get out and walk. MAKE yourself change how you are dealing with it. If things are going on that cannot be changed at this time.. you have to get up and find a better way to deal with it. Many do not deal with stress productively and there are meds to help but before you look down that avenue.. talk to someone. Sometimes we do not get out everything we take in and just talking to someone helps so much. I think therapists are at times.. no more helpful than talking to a friend and getting good, common sense advice.. but if you do not have someone you can just spill things to.. seeing one can help because like I said.. sometimes people need to give all the worry.. frustration, fear.. etc.. a voice and get it out of them. The obsessiveness could be a sign of insecurity in your life.. something not stable or something that makes you feel the need to have order in the areas that you CAN control out of fear of unwanted changes that have occurred that you did not want.. the need to control for stability? Not sure.. it could be many things and this is just my two cents. Just know you are not alone and there is nothing wrong with you as a person.. life has just kicked your butt a bit and you need to get back up. Please get back up.. this will pass and if you let it. God Bless
  • i think you should set your self a goal towards anything right now....like lose 30 pounds no matter what....climb a mountain....just try to set yourself up with differnt goals to keep your self busy
  • It's time to get out of bed.
  • you summed it up pretty well. there's your problem. see a doctor.
  • Depression and maybe your hormones are acting up - I know how you are feeling many times over
  • "What's wrong with me?" is generally a useless question when dealing with depression. Nothing helpful can come from asking it. Aside from the obvious suggestions of "get professional help" from your doctor or therapist, here's some other points on the topic: - Get in action. Too much thinking is going on... all this analysis and self-focussed swirling thought makes a little cocoon of suffering. Get out, get active. You don't have to feel like it, just make yourself do it. Exercise, be active, volunteer for something. - Learn to be aware without judgment or interference: sometimes called "choiceless awareness"... this is about knowing what your exact thoughts and feelings are, at this very moment, without getting entangled in them and either agreeing or disagreeing with them, or trying to fix them up, etc. Spend 10 minutes a day sitting upright in a chair, breathe in and out slowly, and just "label" each thought that comes up, e.g. "having a thought that I'm getting fat". There's no need to hide from your own psychological turmoil, just observe it like a scientist watching bacteria under the microscope, counting each cell. - Work on your life: what isn't moving that should be moving? What are you avoiding. Stop avoiding it. Deal with the things you've been avoiding. That kind of movement makes a ton of difference. - Take responsibility for the depression: promise yourself that you will find a way to end it. You don't have to know how, but muster the determination that YOU are the solution. Nobody can save you, nobody else can live your life. In the end, we all have to "self-generate". - Get your attention off of yourself: this goes back to the "volunteer for something" suggestion... too much self-focus is harmful, there are other people who are in much worse shape than you, and can use a hand. Helping others kills 2 birds with one stone: it gets your attention off of yourself and it reconnects you with the whole of life. - Time and persistence matter: refusing to give up is the most essential thing there is. Depression can be ended, you can do it. And ONLY you can do it. Good luck.
