...See more I've been "in recovery" for years now, a lot of people would still define my eating habits as disordered but it was where I was a healthy weight and didn't have a lot of anxiety about calories or fat in general. Then my life blew up, and I gained [weight edited by 24Help1] pounds, and now I'm secretly taking diet pills which I haven't done since I was 15, I've stopped snacking(which was the only thing I'd eat all day besides dinner hence why a lot of people still consider it disordered eating), and now I'm plagued with food anxiety on top of everything else.

...See more It's fair to sat depression runs in my family. Both my parents were on antidepressants for years, my grandmothers were as well, my great grandparents were all alcoholics and as far as I understand it was probably the closest thing they had to an antidepressant back then. I dip into depression very easily. All it takes for me is to read an article that hits too close to home or to say the wrong thing and my day is ruined. I spend a lot of time depressed, but that's usually fine because my family(husband and kids) don't really notice or appear affected by it as long as life keeps moving on. However now my mother lives with me, and she is extremely depressed and I always say the wrong thing to her and send her spiraling and I just want to know how I can relate in a healthy way with others without triggering their own issues. Any thoughts?
