All of my coping skills aren't working. I had lost 40 pounds and felt amazing, and then the depression hit and I gained 30 of it back. This is, of course, not helping. And it's a vicious cycle.

I used to take Effexor, and it worked well, so I'm going to ask for that again, take it for awhile, and then hopefully wean off of it after a time.

Any advice or info would be appreciated.
Hi ((((Praying)))) I am sorry you are struggling so much right now. I can relate so much to what you are going through right now. My heart to yours, it is absolutely awful. AND it is even more awful because you remember all the times you got up again...but this time just cannot seem to do it, so it's even more upsetting

I am so glad you were able to reach out to your doctor. Do you have a T, as well?

I wish you the best. Please keep posting and let us know how you are feeling / doing.
