I had my first baby at 18, second at 21.
Divorced their father after five years due to his Drug addiction.
Met my now husband in 2004, we have a blended family, two boys, two girls. My husband has a much closer relationship with my daughters than I do with his sons.
I have always been obese but never really let it get to me.
I had my first weight loss surgery in 2011, things didn’t go as planned, ended up having more in 2018.
I lost my father in law in 2018, my father in 2019 and mother in law in 2021. I don’t think I’ve been able to mourn any of them as it was up to me to organise everything. We are still going through the process with my mother in laws estate, it’s been nearly two years.
I’ve always been the one to knuckle down and get stuff done.
I’ve never been a big drinker, was always the deso Dave on nights out.
For the past couple of years I have been drinking spirits.
It came to the point where I was drunk nearly every afternoon, then I passed out and hit my head earning a night in hospital.
I spoke to a psychologist a few times but don’t think she was the right fit for me.
I don’t drink everyday but when I do it’s nearly the whole bottle and it’s in secret.
I have no motivation, no enthusiasm for anything.
After reading many other forum posts I’m wondering if depression has reared its ugly head?
I’m just wanting to know if there’s anyone else out there dealing with these kinds of issues
