Feel like I dont care about anything anymore

You're having an episode of depression. Trust me on this one. I've fought it off and on all my life. Stay on your meds give them 4 to 6 weeks. You may need to try a different medicine or you may need a combination of meds. The important thing to remember is you can beat it. You can last longer than the symptoms, including lack of appetite. Don't give up. Ask your psychiatrist to refer u too a therapist. Talking will help u deal with your feelings. If you are religious seek help through priest, rabbi, minister, nun, etc. You've done something major to your body in order to help yourself. You have what it takes within you. You just can't see it right now. But it's ok. Remember that. It will get better. I promise. -

It's an insurance requirement. Keep hope alive. You'll be fine.

In need of a buddy sleeve date Feb 26!
kjcatchings1957 replied to skinny06's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums
Hi. I'm kjcatchings1957. I'm in need of a support buddy too. I was sleeved on 11/11/15. So far I've lost 45 lbs. I'm a "slow loser" but that's fine with me. I'll have a better long-term outcome by losing weight more slowly and I'll have less loose skin. What do you say? Can we be buddies? Congratulations on your amazing journey into a new, exciting, healthier way of living!
