> And nobody said it did. But the thought that obese people haven’t considered therapy is absurd. Most of them do so for depression, not the obesity, but they are usually related.

Citation needed. As I understand it, serious therapeutic psychological treatments for obesity are highly stigmatized in the US. You may be projecting your own experience onto a group that does not share it.

By the way, CBT as used for depression and for obesity are totally different types of CBT. CBT methods are highly tailored to the specific thought pattern you want to prevent.

Not just me. I have plenty of friends who have tried therapy many times. Anecdotal, yes, but I’m unfamiliar with any studies about this.

And yes, I’m familiar with the differences. I was simply saying they usually walk in with depression, and move on to obesity.
