Relapse

elizara added an entry about lose weight : Major relapse this week. Today 4,000 calories, including mostly icecream. Ate till I felt nauseated today and yesterday and the day before. I seriously need to take control because this is really hastening a tailspin. It started with… I don’t know… some rejections in my professional and private life, and now my depressed demeanor is infecting my friendships as well. I think it’s S.A.D.ness. Seasonal affective disorder combined with atypical depression, the kind of depression that causes overeating and sensitivity to rejection. I need to save myself really soon. Maybe I just need to go to a tropical place to get away. I am constantly stressed out about work, and constantly procrastinating. I never take a break from procrastinating. I wake up with my heart racing with terror about what I haven’t finished. I’m having trouble making decisions and moving forward with anything other than eating. I’m still about 135 pounds, but binging at the rate of 2 pounds a week and totally interfering with my life. Right now I am going to get some work done. Actually try to get this thing done that I’ve been procrastinating since Monday. And then I’m going to reread this diet bible… the Beck Diet Solution. And then I’m going to take a chill pill and go to sleep.
