In reply to Leptin For Depression + Weight Loss, posted by Phillipa on July 8, 2009, at 23:58:02
Phillipa, besides feeling sorry for those poor rats forced to swim, (or was it that I identified with them?), this article made me think of the relationship that exists in my family between food and depression. I could be reading the leptin thing all wrong, but when any of my bipolar sibs lost weight, an instability of mood followed. Eating also when disthymic. The weight signaled a shift of something...or a sign of stability....
