I don't know how to cope with this extreme depression

My name is Candice and I live in west Texas. I've been BIG all my life. I had surgery March of last year and I've lost around 100 lbs and then just stopped. I have another 100 lbs I want to loose and skin that needs to be taken off.. I have recently become lost and unbearably depressed. I know I should be happy, I should be working as hard as I can to get out of this stall, but instead I wallow... I cry.. I've gotten so bad that I now know it's true, you can be so depressed that it actually hurts. I live in an area that doesn't have therapists or places for help with things like this. I don't have friends, they've all turned their backs on me...

I'm lost and don't know what to do.

Do you have a regular doctor that you can go to? It sounds like you need an anti depressant . Also, exercise helps with depression. It's really true that endorphins will make people feel good.

I am really depressed too. I had back surgery and it got infected and it took 3 months to get into an infection specialist. I had to have another surgery to clean out the infection and now I can't exercise.

One love

You have done so great for yourself, after 100 pounds lost I would be doing a cart wheel, you are just in a bad place mentally... I hope you can look beyond your Weight and loose skin.... Life is wonderful and God has been so kind to you to give you this opportunity to drop 100 pounds... Maybe it's the stall that's bothering you... Speak to your surgeon he may suggest you some better doctors or some psych evaluations which will really help you thru... And you Ofcourse you can always share your story here with us.... We are all ears ????????????????

OregonDaisy.... I hope your back infection gets better, working out is not a big deal as long as you control what you eat... Take much better car of your health and diet... And once you are completely 100% ok you can start with exercising.... Stressing out about weight will just delay your getting healthy process... Surely you don't wanna do that.....

I will surely pray for you guys... ????

Downsizingdiva... We all have our low moments, where we just need our family and friends to help us through... And then back to the high note in life and dropping pounds.... So yayyy....

Candice you have the support of everyone here. You are not alone. It sounds like you have depression and are struggling. Please find your local resources and get help. I have been in that place. You have come so far.

See your doctor about an antidepressant. There is no reason you should be feeling that way. You would be amazed at how it can lift your spirits. I know from experience. Good luck!
