Hello! I've always managed to keep my weight steady, but recently, because I struggle with depression, I was put on medication which had me constantly wanting to eat.
As a result, I gained a lot of weight in a very short time - 50 lbs in like five months, putting me at the border to overweight, and I just don't know how to deal with it.
I'm off the medication now, and it's like a switch has flipped. I'm not binging anymore, the food noice has disappeared, and I can finally eat like I used to.
But it just makes me so sad, because I have such a long way to go, and I am so, so ashamed of myself. I look in the mirror and am still surprised by what I see, because it all happened so quickly.
I struggle with meeting people now, because I'm ashamed to be perceived as I am. I don't want them to think badly of me, and I just feel so uncomfortable in my skin that I've basically hidden myself away.
I don't really know why I'm even posting. I suppose I feel it is nice to shout into the void. If the void shouts back, please try to be kind? I would really appreciate that.
Thanks for reading!
