Good morning. I first want to tell you that you are incredible at making individuals feel like there is still hope for themselves and for that I am so grateful to you and your staff I don’t have to lose weight but because of a major depression I couldn’t eat or even do much of anything as far as moving around etc and for that my muscles started to shrink and dwindle away because my body was feeding off of the muscles because I couldn’t force myself to eat. I don’t have an eating disorder but because of this depression, my body has sagged and I can’t seem to get myself back into the shape and the health I felt my best in. Is there anything or anyone that I could talk to? I can’t afford to go to a dietician or even a psychologist because I barely have enough funds to pay my bills so there isn’t a whole lot left over. I am on AISH due to a severe leg and muscle disorder. I’ve have had many many surgeries done and although I feel my best when I am able to help people and or work at a job even part time, it just makes it hard to commit and then having let them down is even harder for me mentally. I’m not sure if you would be able to suggest something or someone with whom I can talk with. Preferably you. Lol I find you are so easy to understand and you make people feel like they truly matter. If you have a class or see people in your practice could you please let me know.
