sinking in Depression

What is it like to like yourself? To actually be pleased with who you are as a person?
You know, whenever I tell someone how I feel, it’s like they think I’m just overreacting. Like I’m making a big deal out of nothing. To be honest, I wish that was the case, then I wouldn’t actually feel like this.
I know there is a lot of bad in the world and so many are going hungry and all that important stuff. But that doesn’t mean my problems aren’t important to me.
I just want to be slim. That’s all I want. I don’t have to have a wonderful career, or a huge home, I just want to be slim.
Before you ask, yes I do want to be healthy. But after years of feeling so shit about myself constantly, health isn’t really my priority right now. I need to get myself into gear, because each day that I put on weight is another day where I sink deeper into this depression. And I don’t know how far I can sink before I reach a point where I can’t find the surface again.

I struggle hard with this every day. It's nit s much the struggle to be slim but to stay that way. It can be such a struggle to look in the mirror and not like what you see.

i feel the same way...
perhaps you could brainstorm a plan of action on how to reach your goals. write it all down. then commit to each day. i find even after only a day or 2 of that i feel much better.. and then you're also going in the right direction to what you want in the long run.
