indigo1015, I was wondering if you could find a buddy to go on this nutrition and exercise journey with you? I have found that when we feel different or ostracized it helps to have someone there who understands our struggles and who can walk with us and you both can help and encourage one another. I have found that when I am depressed that I feel very cut off from people and it really helps to have a connection with someone who knows and cares about us.

I really hope that you reach out and see if this is a good option for you. I am glad that you reached out here and I wish you only the best. ((hugs))
