[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 211891, member: 3907"] SRL, it's funny isn't it how NOT being busy and overwhelmed can be as hard or even harder than being busy and overwhelmed. I saw my therapist yesterday and was telling him about my malaise and general down-in-the-mouth-ish-ness. He said that I'm likely a bit depressed because I feel as though I have lost my purpose. He said that I seem to have mixed feelings--part of me wants to be up and doing, but another part of me wants to just laze around. His recommendation was that I just roll with it for now. He said that my nature is to be a Type-A go-getter so eventually I will get on with doing everything that needs to be done, but for now I should just go easy on myself and not set myself up for failure by cramming the to-do list full of things that I'm just not going to get done right now. As for the eating...I seem to be doing a combination of stress eating AND stress starving. I will forget to eat all day, and then when I'm ravenous I will polish off a mitful of leftover halloween candy and a cup of tea. Eating nothing but cr@p is a recipe for disaster if ever there was one... Sigh. [/QUOTE]
