  • Diabetes

    • Type 2 diabetes mellitus is a chronic preventive health condition that affects how your body turns food into energy. It can be controlled by diet and obesity may be induced by diabetes.

  • Thyroid Disease

    • Thyroid disease is a medical condition that keeps your thyroid from making the right amount of hormones. It can either result in a slowed (hypothyroidism) metabolism or fast (hyperthyroidism) metabolism. These conditions are often caused by autoimmunity, and obesity can be induced by thyroid problems.

Mental Health Illnesses

  • Complex Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

    • C-PTSD is a condition where you experience some symptoms of PTSD along with some additional symptoms. It results from long durations of exposure to complex trauma or extremely stressful negative life events.

  • Localized Dissociative Amnesia Disorder

    • Localized dissociative amnesia disorder involves being unable to recall a specific event or events or a specific time period.

Other Conditions
