Two of my family members are interested (separately) in getting treatment for what seems to be depression. They are both in the Columbus, OH, area.

I've come to the conclusion that I might have an eating disorder. Or an addiction problem. Or perhaps ADHD. Or is it OCD (minus the C). Help me make sense of this.
