Diario de Cindy Thompson, 09 jul. 11

Cindy - Welcome home! Very, very good to have you back! There are a lot of other diets out there - Low Glycemic - Primal - and even the old fashioned Sugar Busters. They focus on eating "Good Carbs" rather than limiting total carbs (like Atkins). Best of luck! 

Oh Cindy, so much in your journal is unspoken, I am so sorry to hear you are struggling and I hope your meds keep you stable. I do hope your husband and kids understand. Mental illness is such a difficult thing for people to come to grips with. I hope you left hospital with a good support system and that you have someone to talk to, that's important, to have someone to chat to and share with. Sending you love Cindy and hoping you find a food style that fits you and helps youfeel good about yourself. Stay well sweetie. You are valuable to the world and would be sorely missed.  

Oh honey, we have missed you something awful..You need to take care of you..Sending lots of love hugs and prayers your way... Love ya dear and know if you need to talk I am only a pm away.....Bren..P.S. your are so right it was not your time to go...so please don't try again..you are very much needed..believe in your self like we do.... 

sending you warm hugs and plenty of love. please take care - you're too important to so many people to leave. you'll get the weight thing figured out soon. love you, honey! 

My dear friend and sister...I am so sorry that you have been struggling so with this monster called depression. It is so hard to find your way out of the dark place sometimes. I hope that things are better now and as for the food, do what you need to do in order to get well. I love you, my sister, and we have been praying for you every single day! May you find peace and joy in your life. God bless, Cindy! 

A great big thank you to all my friends. May God be with you. Thank you for your prayers. One moment at a time. I'm learning to appreciate every second of my life an trying not to worry about the past or the future. The only person that I can do anything about is myself and that is plenty of work for me right now. Big hugs and love to all. 

Oh Cindy I am so sorry for all you have been doing through. Depression is a dark ugly monster that rears his head too often for some folks like yourself. I am so happy that your attempt was not successful, you have so much to live for and so many people around you that love you. Is there any particular nutritional guidelines that you doc can provide you that coincide well with your medications? I would start there first. Might be that a good well round diet of whole grains, lean protein and healthy fats may suit you best. High this and low that may not be the best for you at this time. Please above all, stay healthy in mind, body and soul. God Bless! xxx~Babs  

Cindy, I too have been there and my week in the psych ward made a huge difference for me. Do they have outpatient services you could go to? My hospital offered a 6 week OP program. I went daily 9-3. It was intense but soooo helpful. One of the women I met is now one of my best friends. I know that when the darkness comes I can reach out to her and she will pull me up. Depression is an ugly monster, it is isolating, overwhelming, and misunderstood. I have to say for me, following Atikins has brought me much better moods as my eating is stable an regular. I pray you will find some peace. Please feel free to msg. me ANYTIME if you feel the darkness come, I am here.
