The things we have in the past and the things we lose afterwards can be mourned for years. Bodily mourning is one of them… Suffering thinking about the thin and weak bodies we had in the past, sighing by looking at photos, gaining excess weight as a result of an illness, not being able to move as before, not being able to wear our favorite clothes anymore, not being able to bend over to tie our shoes, someone talking about our weight , being forced to do the things we do easily, being out of breath while walking… all and more are problems that stem from changes in our body, but also have many other psychosocial aspects and have become even more evident today...
Psychiatrist Elisabeth Kubler-Ross He says that there are 5 stages of grief: 1- Denial 2- Anger 3- Bargaining 4- Depression 5- Acceptance. We evaluate the situation differently at each stage. For example, if we are in the denial phase, the recovery takes a little longer, but when we see the devastating consequences of depression and move on to the acceptance phase, we reach a point where recovery is very close. One of the things I have observed in some patients, especially in those who are in the bargaining stage, have dieted many times before, then hopefully decide to diet again. This stage is very important, as a result, if he confronts what he hasn't done, accepts his disappointment and continues to do the right thing, I can say that he starts to fly just like a butterfly comes out of the cocoon. But I think the most important thing is to approach the situation realistically and to be stable. I say this so that we can live a good life regardless of weight. I wish someone healing.
With love
