Thanks RoadRunner.

I'm actually not seeing a therapist, I honestly don't have the time with my lifestyle. My skin aside I've been coping well with my depression since my ex left and I found my current boyfriend - but there are times when I think it would be beneficial to seek therapy because my lifestyle has just changed dramatically and I'm having trouble adjusting to my life suddenly no longer feeling in my control.

To summarize I used to live in the same town as my job and near my friends but due to some family complications I had to move in with my boyfriend, a 45 minute drive from where I used to live (and I don't drive so I rely on my boyfriend to get me back and forth). I feel guilty about that a lot because it means he has to get up a bit earlier and sometimes (because I'm on shift work) stay later to pick me up. His family doesn't make it much easier because they're constantly on him about us never being home and they assume that because I'm not the one driving that I'm not tired - they don't take into account that I start working when I get dropped off - regardless of my scheduled start time. It's one of those things that makes me grind my teeth but... I'm living in their house so I feel like I can't really tell them off. And I feel like I can't really take control of my diet now either - I'd feel weird telling them that I'd like to cut out all the processed crap they eat. "Could I just have the broccoli tonight?" lol

Blah, I think I'm just feeling a little overwhelmed with all the change and my skin is suffering from it and by that making it worse. >_<
