Weight gain/loss?

I've looked in the past threads here in this section and can't find any questions on it, so here goes.

Have any of you experienced weight gain or loss dealing with the stress of living with an alcoholic?

After the nutter ex-husband left and we got divorced, I lost a lot of weight. I was so devastated.

Now? I'm the heaviest I've ever been in my life. I know a good 50% of the cause is me constantly sitting on my ass with a nose in a textbook, trying to maintain that 4.0 grade average. (and my mother said I was too stupid to go to college pfft.. what did she know? Nothing apparently)

After reading here about how depressing it gets dealing with this sickness, and yeah, I'm depressed as hell, I'm wondering if that's another contributing factor.
