Hi there I really would appreciate a second opinion. I have a full time job whilst my partner works for himself. Although he has brought in money this has now run out. He has recently brought in a small income about a month. I pay the mortgage, the bills and for food. On a fairly regular basis, my p...

hee hee just made myself laugh - what a lovely picture I'm portraying of myself , white hair, soft flabby arms....

hmmm that could be true about having to eat to lose weight When I cut out all food my weight just stayed the same and I just felt terrible, I couldn't even exercise because I was too weak. Then even if I ate a bit, like a piece of chocolate I would gain weight. I think now I have messed up my metabo...

Hi there Crash I think you sound like a really caring husband for being sensitive to her feelings and deciding not to look at porn. My partner frequently looks at porn and if I get angry he says it's "normal" to look at porn and that it means nothing. He has never once suggested that he st...

Hi there I've posted here before about this subject but it's just not going away and I'm concerned that I can't live with the person I'm with. I'm supposed to 'love' my partner i.e. we are supposed to be soulmates who connect on an intellectual level but there is one problem between us and that is m...

Hi Zohar, What you said made me feel very sad inside I think because it touched something very raw within me. I suppose it's because I had people saying that I was fat when I grew up that I had in my mind that what is natural for me is being 'chubby' or fat. I kept having the message reiterated to m...

Thank you. Yes I think I am still intrigued by the self discipline of people that can reach a weight like that and not give in. I think I still 'gave in' when I had family meals for example, when I could have not. I think you are right about not going back into these thoughts but I think it's becaus...

Hi I'm recovered from being anorexic however I still have persistent thoughts about an issue which I can't get rid of even now. I watched a programme last night about a woman and it showed her diet and her being underweight i.e. 6 stone 1 lb. When I was anorexic I ate a good deal less than her but m...

Hi I was wondering what people's thoughts are on the fact that me and my partner usually sleep in separate beds. It came out of my partner working late at night and then choosing to sleep in a different room but now it's become the norm. He doesn't really approach me for sex and looks at porn. In ad...

Hi there I would advise to keep at it - I was on Citalopram for 2 months and felt a lot lot better on it. I came off it about a month ago and I have really sunk back into anxiety with muscle pain and depression. My moods are terrible and I feel suicidal. I did feel a bit odd for the first month on t...

Hi I've been with my partner for ten years and he has always looked at porn. Just now I found a whole lot of porn sites that he had been looking at last Friday after I had gone to bed. I feel really bad about it. I suffer from depression and so I might not be as in to sex as he wants, but he never a...

Hi I live with my partner and I think he may be suffering from depression. He drinks 1 x bottle of red wine every night, and then either another half a bottle or about 2 or 3 beers. At the weekend, he may drink more. He has been saying for about 5 years that he will give it up but it doesn't happen....

Hi CZ, Thanks and I'm really sorry if I offended you by the comment about men - I didn't mean to generalise and I understand we are frustrating as well. I talked things through with my partner, and he said that he had been so focused on the goal that he had forgotten about the cash flow problem i.e....

Hi Sadman, I felt really sad reading your post, but one thing I picked up on, was that you noted that you have all these things in your life i.e. career, wife, that mean you shouldn't be depressed, but you are entitled to feel depressed even with all those things. Can I ask whether there was ever a ...

Hi there I wondered if anyone has had experiences of weight gain and citalopram? I have been anorexic in the past and although I eat normally now, I am concerned about gaining weight on this drug as I have read a few horror stories on the interet. Does the drug make you gain weight even if you eat t...
