    Thank-you for congrats on quitting/anxiety relief! I have felt like Peter Gibbons (main guy in movie Office Space) after the shrink died. I see work only as a means to earn money to buy junk to survive and happiness. Eventually I'll have my own business and then the work will be something I actually look forward to. Sunshine and smiles are not work! Hugs to ya! :)

    My sponsor said you are bad for my recovery. But he said its cool if we meet at Niagra Falls. LoL You weren't kidding about Toronto and Bufallo being THAT close. You were right, Niagra falls is right there. I'll even let you buy me a pretzel. By the way, I busted out Thriller after Billy Jean.

Treatments
 Celexa (Working / Worked)
It has helped with the depression.
 Dietitian Consult (Somewhat Helpful)
It is very insightful, but its hard when you can't stop bingeing.
 Group Therapy (Somewhat Helpful)
It was nice to see people who had the same struggles I did, but I didnt' feel it was individualized enough.
 Overeaters Anonymous (OA) (Working / Worked)
I was attending the meetings regularly while in treatment but since being home have not gone to any. It was helpful though.
 Support from Friends & Family (Working / Worked)
It is always helpful to have the support from my family and friends, but it is ultimately up to me.

 Anxiety
I suffer from alot of anxiety... I believe that this is the reason why I binge because I have anxiety attacks and don't know how to handle them. 
Treatments
 Breathing Exercises (Working / Worked)
It always relaxes me
 Positive Thinking (Working / Worked)
It helps me to believe I am worth having a better life. When I feel like life isn't not worth it, it puts things into perspective.
