I had to visit a psych center for clinicals in school and nearly everyone was overweight. I mean, very obese. I couldn't help but wonder if they'd feel a little better if they weren't. I know it's not so simple and when you're so depressed you don't even have the energy to get out of bed to kill yourself... but I feel like their whole lives involved waking up, playing stupid games for prizes, getting their cigarette, and eating. I didn't see any attempt of fitness by them or the staff. I had a patient that got to aggravated by trying to open a box. I thought she was going to flip out and kill me. I feel like she could be encouraged to do anything to get that energy out.  The whole place was so depressing and I never want to go back. Again, I know it's not that simple and maybe these things were already attempted. I'll never know. I do know that being that fat, eating sugar all day, having medical problems, and not feeling like part of society is not mentally healthy. :(
