So I'll try and keep my comments brief on here :)<br /><br />I think recognizing that counseling is helpful for you is a key step. It was for me. I found myself in similar circumstances after moving to Salem and rapidly regaining all the weight I had worked so hard to lose four years earlier.<br /><br />My therapist helped me recognize that the root issue was my (nearly lifelong) struggle with depression. I began to learn to recognize signs and symptoms and come up with remedies that would work for me. And I keep trying...<br /><br />I hope you'll keep us posted on how this approach is helping you!Katherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03186134423676961288noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1320300408192462863.post-45704567196715659832010-07-15T17:44:19.182-07:002010-07-15T17:44:19.182-07:00"I am glad I was able to catch this"

It is not so...I think this stuff happens in cycles. It is not something that gets fixed and goes away forever. I am extremely proud of you for recognizing it and taking that step to get help. I think the emotional portion of our lives easily gets pushed aside, it is not something we can measure, see, or touch day to day so when working on it, it is hard to "measure" the results and it can easily slip back into a dark place.<br /><br />It is not an uncommon thing to have resurface however, it is uncommon and very brave of you to have recognized it and begin to address it quickly. Keep up the good work, We're all pulling for you!LTeezyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03912800640791147485noreply@blogger.com
