I read your post, and you struck a chord with me. I am going through this exactly to the tee. But---it is so bad I feel words cannot explain or describe the despair of my emotional 'funk' as you said. Being as this is 4 years later, I needed to ask, how did you get through this?? Anyone else have any suggestions that are tried and true for them?? I feel like this is getting worse and more comPlex by the day... EyesHalfClosed,

I realized that I am motivated by my romantic relationship to loose weight. What happens is when things are not peachy in my realationships, I loose motivation. I get depressed about how things are going and overeat, then I get dressed because I overate. Well I hope you are still bloging, this post was really helpful.

I have been depressed for many years and sometimes can't see the light at the end of the tunnel, so to speak. If anyone out there has the same problem please give me some tips as to how you deal with it... For myself, it has reached a level to where I don't want to get out of bed in the morning and am just living to stay alive. I have been on antidepressents but nothing seems to help.. Luckly, I have hope and patience. I know that one day I will truly be happy and content. I don't mean for this to be a let down to any one, just needed to get that out there and if there is any one who feels the same way or has reached that point.. Please speakout..

The doubters, the people who have ridiculed my dreams and told me I'm wasting my time. The people who see me as a joke.  Nobody likes to feel like that, and it's a very powerful motivation to try and prove people wrong.  You know what the biggest motivation is for me?
