my names corey. im 21. i have recently started to have a lack of caring for my health anymore. i feel like when i get up to go to work i have to be under the unfluence of something just to get through the day in a semi-happy mood. ive smoked since i was 14. about a pack a day now. i feel as tho im getting addicted to alcohol considering the fact that i usually chug 2-3 beers before work everymorning to catch a buzz then down a 4-5 more at night. i dont eat anything in the morning just lunch. when i do eat i have no will power to eat healthy. i usually grab a double quarter pounder combo. when im hungry im never in the mood for healthy food. ive also found myself addicted to DXM. i pop 8-16 pills every other day during work hours becuase i feel like it keeps me motivated and happy through the day. i feel liek i cant function without them. i drink excessive amounts of energy drinks/shots/pills every day. i have no natural energy anymore. i used to work out and run everyday. i dont anymore. ive lost my strength i cant seem to get out of this rut. im becoming more depressed everyday..... not sure why im posting this. i think its becuase i want to hear other peoples opinions on my lifestyle so that it will maybe give me a push to get back to my normal healthy life i used to have.

any comments?
 
Hello Sky

My friend, I don't think you need any lectures here about how unhealthy the choices are that you are making. You have been pretty upfront about that.

I believe some serious intervention is needed both physically and mentally.An MD is needed to help you off the over-the-counter products that you are using. Much help is available if you can tryly let the doctor know what has been happening. Total honesty will bring the best care.

I also believe that you need some intervention with some type of counselor... a social worker (clinical one), a psychiatrist, a psychologist.. your choice, but someone to help you with the depression and the underlying causes. The behaviours are self-destructive, but I know you already know that.

It is a good step to post about the issues. An even better step is actively seeking 3-D help from some people who can help you through this. I hope you do. Life is too short to not enjoy in a good and healthy way. Hope to see you posting soon about the steps being taken to gain control again of your life.

Wishing you the best

I'd recommend some help also. You are taking some pretty serious measures to just get through each day. Most people go with the cup of coffee or possibly two. Not beer and pills. That's not a good mix.

Just be very persistent and you will slowly get better and begin to break bad habits.
