Thanks WC! It was nice to have 11 months. I still have FML depression but can function. The fetal position depression for me is horrific as I refuse to do anything but sleep and has lasted for months and terrifies me. I went from 212 to 259 last year in my last depression and have gone from 259 to now 218 in 9 months and I cant go back, it was so hard! I want to hit my goal of under 200 sooooo bad.

The way I handled it best one year was to invite people from a support group who understood my issues. It was wonderful! Don’t beat yrself up. You’ll be back on your game in no time! Hugs!

The holiday was a huge part as my work dries up and I lose income and creates a panic. So instead of losing maybe 2 days of pay last week I ended up losing 5 due to the depression.
The support group is a big problem for me and one of the triggers. I was going to a 12 step program very successfully for 8 months and than got into personal issues and refuse to go back as Im a stubborn fool. I have not slid back into the addiction (gambling), and have zero impulses, but its playing with fire and I miss the structure the program gave me. I still dont know what to do as that one meeting is the best option for me.
