Weight issues are fairly common with anxiety and depression. There are actually diets specifically for these issues. I seem to have lower depression when I am eating more of a green diet (I think that is what it is called). When I dive into pastas and meats I feel slow and lazy, this seems to contribute to the depression. Activities seem to be the best thing for me. I don’t eat much when I’m active and my depression is a lot better.
feeding feelings is a very common issue....it's brought on by a lot of things, being anxious, feeling sad and lonely, angry, etc.
Hi friend, I am sorry that you've been feeling like this. Have you gotten to the root of your depression? Perhaps, you can seek spiritual guidance from a local church or trusted friend to help you find better ways to heal. I'm a firm believer in seeking God for deliverance from depression. He has helped me overcome so much. I am praying for Him to help you get through this so that you too can be free, happy, and restored.
