I want someone to find me a therapist or a program or something that will help me because I'm totally at a loss to do anything to help myself.
We're moving to the suburb over, a grand total of like five minutes away  But yeah, I drink a lot of soda and eat a lot of sugar. I kind of always have. |

There's a big part of your problem: "I drink a lot of soda and eat a lot of
sugar". The caffeine and sugar are both addictive and both have long-range very harmful effects. Caffeine can cause brain damage and
sugar can cause wide mood swings and depression and diabetes in the future. Clear up that and you may see much more clearly about how to go about talking to a therapist. It's possible you might not even need to see one once you have corrected the diet problems.
Watch out for wheat, rye, and barley, too. They're equally harmful because of a breakdown product in the gluten called exorphins. They cause addiction, wide mood swings, and are addictive, demanding more at every 2- to 3-hour intervals for those sensitive to gluten.
