I'm on a weight-loss site, but nobody seems to understand the mental illness aspect of my addiction to food and lack of motivation. I don't know, maybe I'm blaming a little too much of it on my messed-up brain.

There was a post recently where people just didn't understand why someone in a deep depression couldn't "JUST exercise." They don't get it. When you're that far depressed, exercise is the LAST thing you are capable of doing. You must get out of the depression before you are capable of a lot of exercise.
