Ever since my depression started getting serious about two years ago, I developed severe insecurities, most notably insecurities about my weight, which increased drastically.
I planned on talking with my family doctor (not sure if that term is common outside of Portugal) about prescribing me Ozempic or some other weight loss medication so that I could have something to motivate me besides going to the gym and being on a diet. I've been going to the gym for over a year, and I've been on a diet for even longer, yet I'm still not below 100 kg.
It doesn't help that I eat very fast, and I'm an extremely picky eater.
I'm almost 100% certain my family doctor won't prescribe me shit, even if I show all of my arguments, reasonings, and even the health problems I'm starting to develop as a consequence of being severely overweight.
I have a psychologist appointment in a few days; my next psychiatrist appointment has yet to be scheduled, and my appointment with my nutritionist is only next year because she got pregnant, and I can't really change doctors because I live in a pretty isolated place where there's a lack of almost everything. I don't know what to do at this point.
My biggest fear is if I develop an eating disorder, I'm already starting to get scared just thinking about eating; I'm starting to get desperate; I don't know which measures to take.
Thanks to any help in advance, I appreciate it very much. <3
