Addiction and help (long)
Denise,
There's definitely strength in numbers, not only in terms of support but also in terms of ideas, strength, resources, etc. It's great to know that we're not alone in this experience, and to recognize and let go of the "shame" of it so that we can simply see that it's another bump on the journey. It's NOT, as I've said to others in the past, the "first step on the road back to inevitable obesity." It's merely one more step on the road, and one more obstacle to work through. We will get through this together and individually and we will all be stronger for the experience.
Hugs,
Karen
