I think assena hits the nail on the
head.
You seem to have a combination of
depression and that has been focused on
the physical self-image.
First you need to treat the depression,
because this is a physical disorder
contrary to popular opinion.
It is mainly caused by hypoglycemia, that
inter alia also cause you to put on
weight. Hence the connection between
depression and obesity.
You can help yourself if you are prepared
to study the contents of our web site at:
www.Hypoglycemia.Asn.Au
read the following articles:
“what is hypoglycemia?”
“the serotonin connection”
“depression a nutritional disorder”
“beating anxiety”
these articles tend to be somewhat
technical and if you have problems
following these, please discuss with a
doctor or a therapist.
Then you need to study the self-help
psychotherapy course. There are eight
chapters and if you study one chapter a
week and carry out the mental exercises,
you should start to feel better about
yourself.
Also pay particular attention to the
topic:
“the wooden leg argument” (google
search our web site)
that explains how you can get rid of a
negative self-image that is related to
your physical features.
This cannot be resolved over night and you
need time to study and do the
psychotherapy course. If in problems
consult a therapist.
