Feel like you're constantly juggling opposing identities? Struggling to see yourself as a whole rather than a sum of parts? Congratulations on taking your first step to healing! It can be difficult to navigate issues around your identity and often we feel like someone has turned the lights off.

You feel stuck! Life's challenges, traumas, heartbreaks, relationship problems, and society's expectations have knocked you down and it feels impossible to get back up. You feel like you cannot heal from past hurts, feel joy, peace, and love, measure up, or thrive the way others do. You're afraid to be vulnerable about what you are going through because no one would understand or they might judge. You never thought this would be your life. There should be more to this life but you can't seem to get a hold of "more". You feel alone, sad, worried, and hopeless, and just wish it could all go away and be better when you blink your eyes.

Obesity Therapists
Can obesity be a cause of depression and anxiety?
Yes. It can be stressful and debilitating to carry excess weight. Many people make inaccurate assumptions about people who are overweight. This stigma may lead individuals to feel badly about themselves, decreasing their self-esteem, or leading to feelings of worthlessness. An association between obesity and depression is well-established.
When should an individual seek treatment for obesity?
When obesity, or the feelings it causes, creates a disruption in your daily life, it may be time to seek help. Examples include avoiding social situations due to anxiety, an inability to participate in family life as a result of health problems, or poor performance at work due to low self-esteem or other concerns.
Are there specific medications for weight loss?
There are several prescription drugs that can help with weight loss, including semaglutide and phentermine. These drugs reduce appetite and must be prescribed by a physician. Professionals will suggest lifestyle changes, such as diet and exercise, before turning to drugs, which have side effects and typically are prescribed only for a short duration. Many people regain weight after taking weight loss drugs if they have not made significant lifestyle changes.
What is body positivity?
Body positivity is a cultural movement that promotes the acceptance of bodies of all sizes and types, rather than those that conform to societal ideals of beauty. It places self-worth, self-acceptance, and an appreciation for one’s body as goals to achieve a happier, healthier attitude about oneself and others, focusing on who a person is rather than what they look like.
