A Turn of the Tide

I weighed myself for the first time in many weeks the other day. I've gained 8 pounds over the past 2 months. 8 pounds.

My brain almost exploded.

At my therapist and shrink appointments, I spouted out all the right words. And they commented on how well I was doing.

But in my head I plan on losing it all.

A little voice inside calls out "help me".
