Support Groups
Close Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS)
I was diagnosed with PCOS in 2004. Along with insulin resistance and other hormone imbalance issues. Finally 3/07 had my hysterectomy which finally took away the abdominal pain that I had for many years. Now healing from the surgery. Here to lend an ear for those that would like to talk about it.
Treatments
- Metformin Somewhat Helpful
- Still taking it right now
- Lupron Working / Worked
- I took this shot for 4 months and it finally took away the abdominal pain, which allowed me to have my surgery.
- Hysterectomy Working / Worked
- Had my surgery on March 19th and so far so good. No more abdominal pain from the PCOS, just need to rest for the 6 weeks and hoping to get back to normal. Not looking forward to the hot flahes!
Close Depression
Type: Clinical (Major) DepressionI believe that I have had depression for most of my life. I was diagnosed with it in 2004 and have tried several meds and just not sure of what really works, along with therapy.
Treatments
- Prozac Somewhat Helpful
- I'll be honest I agreed to this medicine because of the weight loss effect, however, it didn't work for the depression or the weight loss.
- Psychotherapy Not Working
- I have a very hard time with counseling. I don't like sharing problems in 40 mins and then waiting another week to finish. Hard for me to trust others and to share.
- Cymbalta Working / Worked

Open Obesity
I'm 220 pounds and still on restrictions from surgery. Have 4 more weeks to wait. Then I want to attack this weight loss full force. Need all the support I can get. I can offer a great sense of support for those that are interested in giving it back :)
Treatments
- Meridia Somewhat Helpful
- I felt that my cravings were different, but wasn't happy with the heart problems I read about so I stopped taking it.

- Had trouble due to the insulin resistance no matter how much I worked out never lost any weight. Told I need to eat every 2 hours to help it out...Need help!
Open Sexual Abuse
Was abused by a parental figure (step parent) when I was younger. Made to feel very uncomfortable about my own body and the changes that come with getting older. Still to this day I wear very large clothes to hide my body and have weight issues because of it. My Mother is still married to this person to this day, so it makes hard for holidays or family functions.
