Lookout Demons!

Okay, I had my first psychologist appointment. The good news is that I'm not The bad news is that I probably am slightly depressed and lonely. Seems about right. I am supposed to keep a journal of what I'm feeling when I eat. Especially when I am grazing. Also about feelings when I was little. I tried to prepare her that I'm a "bit" wordy. She did agree with me that men are stupid but they really can't help it - it's just the way they're made. I have begun my journey to a mentally healthy me, whoever that may be.

Good for you, Lyn! It takes a lot of courage to take this step and you have the right attitude about it! Best wishes for your newest journey to be a success too! - Nan

Good for you!! I, too, started with my "shrink" in June to deal with the very same issue. I do NOT want to sabatoge myself after all of this hard work. I am about 30 pounds from goal - finally under 200 pounds for the first time since college! I think you have done a great thing for yourself, and I hope that you will get everything that you need out of it - good luck to you as your journey continues!

For you!!!! That is the one thing about shrinks I don't like......for some people it is needed I guess, it helps them I guess, GREAT!!! But I have had a great childhood, no traumas what-so-ever and they always want me to dig deeper and find out what I am holding on to.....and I cannot figure it out.....theres NOTHING THERE!!!! In the past I have given up on like 3 different shrinks cause they were absolutely convinced my past was preventing/sabotaging my future.......I had a great childhood nothing, weird, or freaking, never neglected.....wish my children enjoy there childhood as much as I did.....sorry for the rant......But I hope my new shrink doesn't make me search my past AGAIN Take Care and have a great day jesi

Morning Lyn Good for you getting help. Wondering if I should do the same. Just don't trust the one's we have around here! Katie had to see one on a suicide threat & all the therapist talked about was cleaning her room!!! Nothing about suicide threat at all! Keep us updated on how you are doing. big hugs Carolyn
