Hey

I’m new here a little confused by how this all works ? Hope to make new friends here and get support?

I am so lonely my parents and sister died not long ago so since then my eating has gone downhill?

Any tips ?

Also have social anxiety and depression

Hi Dogmad. I'm really sorry to hear about your parents and sister - you must be going through a really tough time.

If your diet has taken a poor turn, don't feel too bad about it - I felt it was important to work through the emotions of grief without adding guilt about the food I was consuming.

Find some simple ways to build healthier foods into your day, in place of some of the comfort foods - for example, fruit snacks and replacing a proportion of your plate with veggies/salad.

Hi Dogmad600,

Welcome to the community. I am so sorry to hear of your parents and sister passing.

I found the site a little difficult to get around to start with but got used to it soon enough. Feeling lonely can be so horrible but many people on here have been very kind to me and I am sure you will find it the same. Don't feel too bad about your recent eating, it must be very hard at the moment. Perhaps you could change just one thing for the better, small things can make a big difference long term. Hope to see you around :)
