I am so depressed about my weight & skin. I have deep acne scars and my doctor says I need to lose weight for health benefits. I don’t want to be fat

It would mean the world to me if I lost all this unwanted weight and kept it off forever. It would mean the world to me if my skin clears up too and these acne scars disappear forever. My dad took me to a dietitian and they put me on Adipex a few years ago (a weight loss pill), it damaged my whole face with acne scars. I feel so sad looking at my face now because the acne scarring is really deep and looks like eczema. I am going to a dermatologist now but I also feel so self conscious about my weight. I need lose about 80 pounds says my doctor. All that weight I should lose can help my mental health problems too. Any tips on how I can lose it all naturally and safely? Please don’t comment saying stuff like accept myself or I am beautiful the way I am. It’s annoying. Nobody wants to be fat or have bad skin.

Working with Chronic Illness

Hi friends!
I really need some sort of remote job to afford, ya know, general living costs and trying to be a healthy human being. I’ve tried to get reliable remote positions but I can’t find anything other than freelance work.

I have experience with marketing and AI, but I don’t have a ton of experience. If anyone has any recommendations, that would be amazing!!!

isolation

since our trauma is relational, how are ya'll doing finding supports...friends...healthy love? I mean, I'm actually at the point where I do like who I am and accept flaws as gentle mistakes on my heart instead of a reason for self flagellation (which never got me anywhere, but more suffering). So, point there is that I like being with me, but I still have this grief and only connect to others comfortably(?) through that. Not sure grief ever goes away, right?

Thanks for readin#ComplexPosttraumaticStressDisorder

Story of when I went to a residential program in Florida

So like I remember this one girl that was working at the center I was in who was really friendly. She told me to make a wish and it will come true. I think it might actually be coming true but to be honest I should have made a better wish because my life right now is like I am barely living. It would mean the absolute world to me if I got more wishes that can be granted so I can live a more happy fulfilling life. I have always been a spiritual person and I really need so many more wishes to come true. I hope I do get more wishes from someone that will be granted. I am not telling ya’ll what I wished for haha #CheckInWithMe #Disability #MentalHealth #Depression #MajorDepressiveDisorder #Mania #ComplexPosttraumaticStressDisorder #SchizoaffectiveDisorder #Schizophrenia #Psychosis #Bipolar2 #BipolarDepression #BipolarDisorder #Anxiety #PTSD #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder #GeneralizedAnxietyDisorder #ObsessiveCompulsiveDisorder #PostTraumaticStressDisorder #Selfharm #PostpartumDisorders #SuicidalIdeation #SuicidalThoughts #Suicide #ChronicIllness #ADHD #Addiction #Autism #AutismSpectrumDisorder #AnorexiaNervosa #BingeEatingDisorder #AspergersSyndrome #AnkylosingSpondylitis #ChronicFatigueSyndrome #Arthritis #Cancer #BreastCancer #Caregiving #CerebralPalsy #CrohnsDisease #EhlersDanlosSyndrome #Endometriosis #Epilepsy #Dysautonomia #Grief #Stroke #WarmWishes #MightyTogether #ChronicInflammatoryDemyelinatingPolyneuropathy #Fibromyalgia #Gastroparesis #Loneliness #CongenitalHeartDefectDisease #ChiariMalformation #FunctionalNeurologicalDisorder

I am overweight. My doctor says I need to lose weight for health benefits. Any suggestions?

Does anyone know how I can lose 80 pounds quickly and safely? Please tell me all the healthy foods I can eat to lose weight, easy tricks, and how I can keep my weight off forever. It would mean the world to me if I lost all this unwanted weight and kept it off forever. I was on Adipex (a weight loss medication prescribed by doctors) years ago and it damaged my skin caused really bad acne scarring on my face and even worse I gained back more weight than I was before eventually. I don’t want to tell anyone my weight, it makes me feel uncomfortable. Please don’t comment telling me how it’s okay to be overweight or you struggle with your weight too because that doesn’t help and nobody wants to be fat unless if you’re stupid #MentalHealth #CheckInWithMe #Obesity #MightyTogether #Disability #Anxiety #BipolarDisorder #PTSD #SchizoaffectiveDisorder #Schizophrenia #Depression #GeneralizedAnxietyDisorder #HypothyroidismUnderactiveThyroidDisease #BipolarDepression #Bipolar2 #Psychosis #Trauma #Selfcare #Selfharm #Suicide #SuicidalThoughts #SuicidalIdeation #ComplexPosttraumaticStressDisorder #PostTraumaticStressDisorder #ADHD #BorderlinePersonalityDisorder #ObsessiveCompulsiveDisorder #ChronicIllness #Autism #AutismSpectrumDisorder

I’m new here!

I'm looking for an online community that helps with Complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder due to childhood trauma. I’m isolated and don’t have community to connect with. My healing is lonely and doomscrolling on subreddits doesn’t seem to be helping.

I don’t want to live off of medications for my mental illness. I want to be cured forever

I wish I can function like a normal person and not need to live off of pills everyday. It would be a miracle if I didn’t need to take medications and can live life like a normal person not having to medicate myself each day. My medications that I am on for my mental illness have side effects and it sucks. I don’t want to take it but I have to do because I can’t be stable without it. Hopefully one day soon that changes miraculously and I won’t ever take back any pills ever again.
