Yes bobby, binge eating and Diabetes do not mix, but Depression causes us to act irrationally in our search for satisfaction. I just have severe, lifelong, Clinical Depression - no Mania. Even my latest AD has fuelled overeating (Mirtazapine) up until 9 months ago when I fell so badly my weight broke my ribs. I had piled on about 60lbs in 3 years, now I have lost 45lbs of it.

I do hope you can get a balance back soon. Normally I would suggest more interaction with the furry family member, but I know that your kitty is cause of increased worry at this time. You are dealing with a prolonged period of stress, do not be too hard on yourself, just concentrate on easing your Mood.
