[quote=Anonymous]It sounds like she is getting to the point of needing more intensive help then just follow-ups with her doctor. Is she is regular CBT type therapy? Can you see about a brief residential program (not hospital) - more one of the private programs in beautiful settings? Her weight may also be contributing to her depression. Being obese can prevent her from doing activities she wants, it can contribute to low energy and it can impact self-esteem. So while I understand not making it the focus, it could help to address it as part of the treatment. [/quote]
