Tbh, she didn't say I should stop completely, so we won't blame her really. They were just making me really tired and not wanting to do anything, so I was like...meh.
I know I'll get hugs on Thursday, but hugs and cuddles are different tbh. I need cuddles like what JD used to give me
That said, i just stopped taking mine one day and I was fine.
Good fucking Christ
I'm sick of all this shit, and trying to make my GP understand why I'm having trouble losing weight... he just looked blankly at me. :rolleyes:
I could say the obvious, stop binging, but that's not so helpful. Have you tried replacing it with something else, like a 5 mile run? Or something more helpful and less damaging, if you know what I'm driving at.
Like whenever I got stressed during my exams, I'd go training, it'd take my mind off it, by the end of a session I'd feel great and I could go home eat a pie and do my revision and everything would be good
And it doesn't help that my housemate keeps going on aobut how lazy and unfit I am when it's bollocks. I'm asthmatic & I hyperventilate, so I get out of breath faster than she does but I'm not actually that unfit.
ETA: For the record, from the pictures I've seen of you, you don't have anything to worry about, you're just sensitive.
One of my housemates is trying to help me out, we're going to eat together for a bit and cut out the lager (I don't drink often, but I'll have 4 pints when I do... bad Kate).
I just got really upset yesterday. Especially as he told me to lose weight without even weighing me. It's probably because it's the PCOS that's made me put on weight but it also gets worse as you put the weight on (Catch-22). I guess he figured that since I'd done nothing to gain weight I wouldn't mind being told to lose it but I wish he'd read my notes first...
Anyway he probably looked at you and decided (sorry for this) that you're slightly soggy round the edges, and could do with loosing a few pounds, which we've established is true, even if not a nice way of going about it. GPs have a really hard job, and sometimes they just can't register that there's a mental problem in the way of the physical one, he probably just thought "so, stop binging?" you know what I mean?
Get yourself down to the gym, try to replace the eating with excercise, and you'll do fine
I know you're right. I hope I manage it this time!
A surprising number of doctors lack tact in a fairly major way. Last year, when I said I was worried about how much weight I was losing, the doctor said (direct quote) 'it's not like you're skinny or anything'. I was 6 stone 9 and had a history of eating disorders. Thanks for that, Dr. Feelgood.
Anyway, point is that you have to try not to take it to heart, which I know is damn hard, but you have to try damn hard. Weight means nothing. You have to put your health and mental wellbeing first. You could be the skinniest person in the world, but it doesn't mean anything if you're the skinniest dead person in the world.
Find a kind of exercise you enjoy, and stick with it. Personally I'd die inside if I went to the gym, but I find other ways to get a bit fitter. The more you do it, and the more you enjoy it, the fitter, happier and healthier you will get. Then the weight loss/size loss - you may not lose any weight if you're toning up - will be a bonus.
I am on my own as the boy is away on a 4 day course thing. And I felt crappy enough before he went about various things. Now that I am on my own they have escalated in my mind and I want things that I can't have. And I hate it. I just feel a bit stuck at the moment. Am forcing myself not to cry or even think about certain things but I just feel so naff.
It sucks big eggs.
Do you have anyone you can go & see or stay with until he comes back?
Nope. I can't go and stay anywhere as I have 3 cats that need fed. Tried to see my local friend tonight but she'd already made plans. The rest are a bit far away to just pop over. I phoned my mum for a bit.
I'll be happier tomorrow. It is this time of night and bedtime that is the worst. I just want a bit of a cuddle and stuff.
I *know* I'm being irrational, as always, but just meh. Things always escalate in your mind when you are left to your own devices.
I probably make no sense
ha im feeling like that. got rejected by some one today. i think. its wierd cos i knew what she'd say but still feel like shit. surprisingly didnt cut myself as much as id think. she probably thinks i'm a twat.
If I cut- I know I'll be made to go back to the fucking counsellor, and I don't want to. So what do I do? Not cut and crack up, or cut, then be forced to see the counsellor.
You know where I am
