I've also had shorter bouts with depression since middle school but it never interfered with working toward most of my goals (I have a master's degree and was once an officer in the military) but it did significantly impact my weight. When I'm not depressed, I would get in shape and get my weight to where it needed to be. Depression always causes me to gain significant weight.

Hope this isn't too much information. Myst


Thank you, that's not tmi, it's very helpful. I started thinking about this because I feel so much anger at times . I only have an associates degree, and I've only been in the domestic version of the peace corps however I'm not overweight so I have that going for me. My parents are runners and exercise was drilled into my head as the cure all. I appreciate your reply.
