Hi Racer,
Yesterday my T asked me when the last time I saw Dr. Clueless was (and she called her Clueless, LOL.) I said last month and she wants me to up my Lexipro. T said, I think you're really doing better, how do you present yourself to her? "I tell her I'm a fat ugly failure."
A good friend pointed out that I am not a failure since I just finished getting a paralegal certificate. Problem is I look at my fat thighs and I think I fail to have thin thighs. Big problem is even at my thinnest I still didn't have thin thighs. Time out while Poet mentally beats the crap out of herself.
I know how horrible it's been for you both in gaining weight and in being unable to get pregnant. I would have stopped the Prozac with weight gain, too. Clueless knows not to give me anything that could cause it. Chalk up one for Clueless. Could your eating too much be caused by depression? Not getting anything done sounds to me like depression.
You are not a pathetic failure: I cannot sew, knit or ride a horse without being thrown off and you do all three successfully. As my friend said I am not a failure because I finish classes and do good in school even though I can still feel the gravel in my butt from the last time I attempted ride a horse back in 1974.
