Hi Everyone

I have just stumbled onto to this section by mistake and thought it might help me if I posted on here. I have been off sick since March 2006 after having a serious accident at work that has left me disabled. I have seen a counsellor and now a cognitive behaviourist since then. I have suffered depression in the past off and on but I feel the way I feel now because I cannot accept what I look like. Apparently I have adjustment disorder? I call it I've lost my leg and I'm gutted disorder! Lol. I'm not meaning to be flippant but I get amused at the wording of things.

Thanks
Lisa

hey everyone.
feel like lurking more and more on here - can't put my feelings into words at the moment. just feeling more and more down. i have managed this far without being on anti depressents, and I want to keep it that way, but its so hard. I can't stop comfort eating either, which in turn makes me feel even worse.
Hope everyone has a good evening.

Hi Slowly Fading

I completely understand where you are coming from with regards to your mood and comfort eating, it's a vicious circle. Since my accident I put loads of weight on and I have been going to Slimming World for just over a year now. When I am low I binge eat and in a sick and twisted way it's a form of control and punishment. I know that I am going to be upset and disappointed with myself when I do binge it but I do it anyway. I too have avoided anti depressants but not because I felt ashamed or anything as I have taken them before, but simply because I am already on so much medication that I didn't want to increase this. I have since been to the my GP and am now taking something for this. I am a great believer in Counselling and cannot rate it high enough. My biggest enemy is myself as I don't want to upset my family so I keep things bottled up, they think that I'm ok when the reality is that I'm far from it.

Keep your chin up
