Sorry you're feeling stressed. Any ideas at all about the cause? Apart from the cravings.

My ideas about the cause keep shifting, so that something that would make perfect sense to me now would seem silly tomorrow, and vise versa. The shifting is part of the problem though because it makes it hard to really try and solve anything when what I perceive as my needs and motivations is changing on a moment to moment basis. Probably just need to ride this out until I stabilize a bit.

Yes, riding things out seems a good idea. You probably know my bias, though. Is the shifting and instability causing you stress in addition to being the product of it? I finally got some good help when I found a therapist who could help me understand the different, discordant aspects of myself. That might not apply to you, of course. Just a thought. I hate to read about you still suffering – although I would hate it worse if we didn’t have Mental Help Net to write to about it!!
