> are you on meds that might be affecting your eating? or is your change in eating pattern a sign that depression is on the scene?
Oh, it's all of the above, I'm sure.
The Trazodone seems to be affecting my hunger-levels but not really consistently, I'm usually hungry in the morning but not-so-much at night. Which is fine with me, but I gotta find something filling for breakfast, cuz my old "coffee and granola bar" breakfasts aren't working.> i find i eat nonstop when i'm depressed....
I used to. Not lately. I think it might be the zinc supplement or the Trazodone.
> if you don't feel like eating, could you manage a slice of toast to take the edge off your hunger? perhaps then you could think of a food that appeals. i often eat snack-like mini-meals throughout the day -- but relatively healthy ones, like peanut butter on crackers or a banana, or perhaps a handful of nuts.
Mostly the stuff that sounds good is expensive and requires going out to eat. And I can't afford to keep doing that, but I don't have the energy to cook it all myself. Nuts...I should start eating nuts and pb again. Maybe on the ever-present granola bars. :P
> sorry, not a scientific answer, but hope it helps.
Good enuf for me. ;)
thanks!
