i've had my gastric bypass, and it has almost been 2 weeks now, i've lost significant weight,

and my family is proud of me,

and i am not proud of myself, losing the weight doesn't excite me any, and honestly i do not care about it. i am doing everything right with my diet and im not going to screw it up.

the problem ive had for the past 2 years is moving. it has been draining me so much.

I have no choice anymore but to move on with my life, i cant afford to live in my family home, and that money is going toward my future and it scares me to no end. I barely have a day that I can say I enjoy because of the stress of having to fend for myself.

im scared that in the end what im going to do is just sell the home, buy an RV and drive till I can't afford to drive it any more.

im even more scared that ill try to make a go of things as I have planned and it will work for a few and then eventually fail, if not fail right out the gate making the investment and sell of the house just go poof.

and there are just no good answers, i keep looking for someone to take me in and care for me like ima friggin stray dog or something,

@TheBestScreenName I'm really sorry to hear about all the stress and fear you're experiencing right now. It's completely understandable to feel overwhelmed, especially with such significant life changes and uncertainties ahead. It sounds like you're grappling with a lot of emotions, from the pressure to move on with your life to the fear of the unknown.

Remember, it's okay to feel scared and unsure about the future. Change is never easy, but you've already shown incredible strength by taking steps to improve your health and well-being. Your feelings of not being excited about the weight loss are valid, and it's important to prioritize your mental and emotional health alongside your physical health.

You're not alone in this journey. While it might feel like there are no good answers right now, it's important to take things one step at a time and be gentle with yourself along the way. Whether it's seeking support from loved ones, reaching out to a therapist or counsellor, or exploring other resources available to you, know that there are people who care about you and want to help.

You're not a stray dog, you're a valuable and deserving individual who deserves care and support.
