    I'm trying to keep my fingers busy----its one of those 'munchies' nights, when you really fancy something to eat but don't know what it is you fancy, so you think of all the things it could be & nothing tempts you...but you still want something to eat! I know I could have a lovely crisp apple or juicy orange, but they just don't have the appeal of a slab of fruit n nut!!!

    Chocolate raisins are my kryptonite but I justify them in several ways..;) ...dried fruit contain essential trace elements that cannot be found in any other food; dried fruit is one of my 5-a-day; & lastly--they don't stay in the 'system' very long if you get my drift :eek:

    I've found another site on this forum for Compulsive Eating, if anyone's interested.

    Sorry to tell you, but my Left knee is on the turn...rain in the next couple of days then.

    Think I'll get an early one if you'll excuse me. Night night. Peaceful Minds folks.x

    She's called Muffin :) She's a lineolated parakeet, and she's about 1, but I'm a bad mother and can't actually remember when her birthday is.

    I went to visit my sister's flat again today. They've now got carpets. Hopefully, she'll be moving out this weekend, and then I can have her old room! I just need to find a cheap double bed. Hmmm, do you think my daddy would notice if I stole his? He only sleeps here one night a week.

    I've felt really dizzy and lightheaded all day :( I think I might be coming down with something

    Yes Ok thanks - someone drove into the side of my car Yesterday morning (Did I already mention this ?) but we're both OK - not much damage to my car and none to his - so hoping to keep insurance co's out of it - depending if the quote I get is acceptable to the guy

    hi gemini,
    the hard part now is going to be facing everyone as my husband told everyone all about it.
    my reasons for doing it are complex and im not even sure myself to be honest. im seeing the psychiatrist tomorrow so i am going to try and persuade my husband to come with me as i will do my usual everythings fine and i will put on by usual front and pretend everythings ok if i go by myself.
    i had just had enough at the end of the day i hate the house i live in because its tiny.
    i hate my job (even though i am off sick at the moment)
    i am skint as usual.
    i am fat.
    i hate my daughter inlaw and the way she neglects my grandchildren.
    i have however decided not to have my stepsons and my daughters in law etc in my house for the moment.
    my three teenage sons at home give me the usual teenagers grief and that gets me down.
    i also desperately crave another child or too but unfortunately my husband cant have anymore and its really hard living with that.
    i suppose it looks really trivial to be depressed by that amount of supposed problems in my life but they really get me down hence the overdose with 40 pills.
    regards
    tooties

    Hi,Maybe your husband told everyone because he was scared? it must have been a big shock for him to realise you are so unhappy.Your problems are not trivial at all,it is hard to cope with one major problem such as debt but when you have a few they can all close in on you and seem like a mountain.I can see from your siggy that you are coping with your debt and should be proud of yourself for that,things will get easier it will just take time.I don't know if you own or rent your house but if it is impossible to move to somewhere bigger then one day your teenagers will move out and you will have more room it might seem a long time in the future but the years have a habit of passing quicker than we think.If you hate your job when you are well you can look for another that you will like better.Also the weight problem is something that can be changed.Now this i do know something about i have been overweight most of my life,fat child,teenager and adult.yo-yo dieted for years,would loose the weight stop the diet and back it would come with some extra.Finaly a couple of years ago i changed my eating habits and just started eating healthier,lots of fruit,vedge,fish ect.If i wanted chocolate i just had a small bar insted of the whole box lol and slowly the weight came off and stayed off.Wish i had done it yrs ago because now im slimmer but old and wrinkley.
    As to the teenage sons,i have two myself and know all about the grief they can give.I live in a two bedroom flat which also is very small and when i am not at work i tend to spend most of my time in the bedroom on the computer,stops us getting under each others feet and keeps the rows to a minimum.Sorry i seem to be writing a book,not usually so talkative.Good luck with your apointment tomorrow hope you persuade your husband to come with you but if not please try and tell the doctor exactly how you are feeling so he can decide the best way to help you and let us know how you get on.
