Yes.
Thyroid problems do cause weight gain.
They did to me.
I've always been a big woman, but after my son was born I decided to try hormonal contraceptives.
I started gaining MUCH weight and being extremely tired -really really exhausted- all the time.
At first I thought it was my lifestyle changes that lead to weight gain (of course, self blame, because you must feel guilty of you weight) and that weight caused tiredness.
Took me a few years to notice that was not the case, that something was wrong.
According to my blood test I was A-ok.
But I decided to get a full test - with almost anything. And they found out I have Hashimoto's autoinmune hypothyroidism.
My doctor gave me some medication, and I'm doing a bit better now.
But in two weeks I have an appointment with an endocrinologist and I'm hoping for more improvement.
But people simply assume you are fat because you are lazy ¬_¬

I've actually taken so many different kinds of medications for my depression and anxiety.
When he was still available, my psychiatrist actually tested my blood a few times to see why I would gain weight quickly.
To my knowledge, they never found anything.
My weight has gone up and down by a lot just by medications I was taking or stopped taking.
I have issues with insomnia and sleep apnea and I just have zero energy always. Soooo I don't get around much xD
It sucks always being tired.
And then people tell me to exercise because it'll give me energy but I need energy to exercise \uB</
I hate being called lazy. Due to my depression and anxiety disorder, people have called me lazy a lot.
People don't understand what they're talking about but that doesn't stop them from talking 8u

Well, it's good you acknowledge that about yourself 8u
I usually acknowledge stuff about myself, but not laziness.
I'm Agoraphobic, so I don't like leaving home. It's an anxiety disorder and it's a very strong one.
Some people don't want to go to the store because they are lazy, or tired, or it's just annoying.
For me, it's crippling fear. Not laziness. Not tiredness. Not annoyance. Actual fear.
Imagine having to do something that scares you the most - that's going to the store for me.
But people don't understand that. They call me lazy. They say "No one likes going to the store!" as if my reason for not wanting to go is normal. It's not.
Anxiety is normal, but an anxiety disorder is not.

As a general rule, people should mind their own business.
When you meddle into people's lives it's likely you'll get it wrong.
Like saying to a depressing person "cheer up!" ¬¬
Yeah, if only it were that simple...

I go with my mom to the store, but lately I've been staying home and it makes her angry.
I say I don't want to go and she says "Well, I don't want to go either but someone has to!"
Her not wanting to go is not the same as me not wanting to go.
She doesn't have issues being around people. She even starts random conversations with people and has fun talking to them.
I don't like that. I don't like being away from home, I don't like talking to people, I'm constantly on edge while out...
It's not the same.
But if I try to tell people, they just don't care xD
I've been told "Cheer up!" "STOP CRYING!!" "You have no reason to be sad!" "Why are you so negative all the time!?" "You should smile more often the world's not that bad!" "Crying doesn't fix anything!" "People have lives much worse than yours!"
