Hello everyone. My goal on this site is to gain support, and also give support to others in similar situatuins as me. I have PTSD and it is quite debilitating at times. I am a fighter though and my fight is paying off. I have improved a lot over the last few monthes. I am also in the process of having gastric bypass. It is a lengthy process, I hope to have surgery in April or May. But those who have been through it know it sometimes can take longer than expected. I'm a funny, loving, beautiful( hey gotta have some confidence lol) person and I am trying hard to get my life back to "normal"! I have been sober for almost 9 monthes and nohing is gonna get in the way of my goals. I'd love to hear from ppl who are going through or have gone through similar circumstances.

MY STORY:I'm tooo fat. LOL and while I realize fat ppl are harder to kidnap,I am willing to take the risk of becoming thinner by having WLS. I would like to have Gastric Bypass(rou-en-y). I started the procedure this month(sept)and am hoping that by Feb. I will be ready to go. What I am looking for here are ppl who have had/ thinking about having WLS. To share experiences with. At 367lbs, I am ready to start a new heatlhier life. I'm just ready to make a drastic change. ANY info would be great!
I found out I was Hypo. in Feb. 07. I was like a walking zombie and after 3 bouts of strep throat, extreme fatigue my Dr. finally tested my thyroid and here I am. I also was started on a very high dose too soon. Had a severe panic attack from this and have been struggling with them ever since. My life is far from normal, I'm not able to work, or do alot of the things I used too. But I'm on my way back up, I see the sun shinning brighter everyday.I hope to be "normal" again soon. I'm a fighter.
Hello all, I had my first big attack in Feb. 07, then nothing, untill Feb. o8. Now they are constant. I am out of work, can't do any of the things I used to. I go to group therapy 3 days a week as well as see a therapist every 2 weeks. I just can't seem to beat it some days. I have improved significantly since they first started, in that I can now manage to leave my house most days, but I feel like I have hit a plateau. And this anxiety is CONSTANT. I am looking for good treatment. ANy ideas????
Not much to tell here, I've been fat my whole life. I'm ready to take it off. I recently started all the necessary stuff to have WLS. I'm also thinking about joining weight watchers. I gained an additional 30 #'s when my thyroid went extremely hypo. And it sux. I't tired of carrying around all of this weight.
I just found out on 9/23 that I have severe sleep apnea. Fun wow.
suffer from "severe, recurring depression" bla bla. I guess what it boils down to is I hate the lonely,sinking,hopeless,"what is life for," feeling that I get in the pit of my stomach.
I am anxious all day every day about any and everything. Some times I feel like I can't go outside. But those times are getting farther and farrther apart. I have never felt like such a fighter. I feel like an army of one against this disorder. And guess what........I'm winning.
Just diagnosed as "borderline" pcos? I know absolutly nothing about it. So here I am!
