Hello. I have one confession to make and I was hopping that someone out there will read this and maybe help me.
I am 19 years old and almost all my life I have been overweight. When I was younger, I didn’t pay too much attention on this but when I entered the puberty- everything changed. I become aware that this could be the only cause of my anxiety and insecure feeling about my self. I also thought that this is the reason of me not having boyfriend ever. I was very depressed about this. So, I started with some diet and after a year, I have reduced my weight on almost normal limits.
But, even now, I don’t have any success with boys. What should I do?
Please help me! I even considered taking some antidepressants?

Well, I can give you some useful advices on this meter.
First, I would like to tell you that I don’t think you should start now with some antidepressants because, really, you don’t have any reason for that. Antidepressants are serious medications and can cause several side effects.
You should change your opinion about your self.
I think you kept your anxiety even now, when you have regulated your weight. Now, you have no reason to be insecure.
You must change your attitude and other people, especially boys will notice that. No drug can do this for you.

I'm sorry I've only seen this post now and that only one person has answered it in such a long time...
How are you, magde?

Starting with antidepressants won't help you in anyway and will only become another problem for you to think about. Besides, they can be very nocive for you. Have you started?
If you have gone through an healthy died, you must be very fine then.
I can tell you that I decided to try to help you because I thought that way too. When I was younger, I was a bit overweight and fat. I started dietting on my own and now I'm a bulimic on recovery... Changing my attitude towards people was something I had to do. I realised that my insides count too and that I was not that bad after all.
I has been a long path, but I don't want either to give up or to see other people going through the same I went to.

Please reply if you can.

Best wishes.
