Dear Startatts,

You've endured a lot in your life and your anxiety and eating disorders and such have been some of your ways of dealing with a lot of it. You are very blessed to have a loving husband that helps to balance you and that is caring and supportive enough to encourage you to get some help. There is help available both on and off base. I hope you will reach out for it. There is no shame in it and just because you're not sure exactly what you need help for, you have been through a lot, and I think some therapy would be really helpful in determining what you do need and how to reduce some of the depression and anxiety you are suffering. There is just no need to be that unhappy. You have resources, and it's time to reach out and use them especially while you are stable and on the base here in the states. You've been very, very brave. Let someone help you a bit and let life get a little easier on you...

Safe hugs and peace on your journey to healing...

Wysteria Blue
