I would say then, time to start analyzing and researching ways to get this issue under control. I would say see a doctor, or atleast get some sun and fresh air.

well, i just wondered what kind of 'consulting' you did. If you do analysis and research......how about you take on YOURSELF as a project and figure YOU out?! seriously. everyone can offer you their advice but if you dont apply it, nothing will change.

GOOD!!! then what are they? BUILD ON THEM!!!! get over this mess alreddie. come on!

well I'm a consultant, so I can't make plans in the evening (I always work until at least 7, and I have to be prepared to work all night with no warning). same goes for lunch breaks. I work a lot of saturdays too, but when I'm not, I don't want to spend them all in a doctor's office!

anyway, I have physical problems, I don't think they are therapy type problems. maybe more chemical/psychiatric if anything.

Seems like you are just full of excuses for not going to therapy.

A martyr can't be a victim.

if you can find time to work out, you can find time to see a therapist. emotional health is just as important as physical.

i wish you luck, you deserve to be happy

Anxiety? Exercise addiction?.. I can get the same feelings, only not as bad as you seem to be describing.

It sounds like you don't exercise to be in shape so much as for the natural high you get when you work out. Exercise makes you feel better. It raises your spirits.

You only live once. Let go a little. 3 days without exercize can be good for you. It lets your body recover. If you were going weeks at a time without exercise, that would present a problem.

I often go three days without working out. I just did actually (sunday I had to spend the day with my family, monday I slept too late, and tuesday I had to go to the doctor). That's why it's all the more important that I work out as much as possible for the rest of the week. That's why I'm going to feel so gross by sunday! and sunday will be spent sitting the car!

trust me, it's all I think about. I spend hours a day researching all the possible problems I could have and thinking about how I can make myself feel better but it seems like the more I try to get back in control, the more out of control everything gets.

Don't feel grose. Just eat healthy and you'll be fine. Watch your calorie intake. It takes weeks without working out to loose muscle mass. Your resting muscle burns off the extra calories. I hear you, I feel the same way when I haven't worked out for more than a few days, but in reality its going to take a while for anything negative to happen.

yes I am. it is not how I would prefer to spend my time, and I don't want to dwell on bad things. When I went to therapy that one time before, the guy brought up things I wasn't even upset about and MADE me upset about them.

I know that and when I was thinner and in better shape I would have been totally cool with it, but now that I'm obese and all I hate having all this extra stuff on me so I always want to feel like I am doing something.

Do you realize how foolish that sounds?

You constantly gripe about stuff, yet you won't seek the help of a trained professional?

Think of therapy as an investment in your (hopefully happier) future.

I don't think "griping" is what therapy is for.

I don't constantly gripe either. it's one of these things on here that people perpetuated that idea and know it's like the common knowledge or something, but it's not true. besides this whole place is basically about complaining.

i think he means gripe as in you starting more than one thread on this matter. and yes, this place HAS BEEN about complaining and i WISH it would stop. What the devil happened to all the freakin fun that used to take place up in here?! jeeze!

I wish I could just go away somewhere, alone, and spend the whole (indeterminate length of) time exercising, exercising more, breathing fresh cool air, exercising more, eating raw vegetables, drinking gallons of water, and getting facials. and coming back as my old self.

god I have to stop fantasizing about this because it just makes me depressed to crave it and not get it.

the feelings I have are much more than low self esteem. I'm ambivalent to myself really, if I had low self esteem, that wouldn't be the case. I know it *sounds* like just low self esteem, but it's not how I feel, I can't describe it. it's more physical feelings.

as for therapy, I don't know how people make trips out for therapy once a week or two in the middle of business hours.

In the nicest possible way, why don't you stop making excuses and just go and see a doctor. Just roll with it and see where it takes you because it's no fun being miserable, scared and misunderstood all the time. You can't just expect everyone to understand how you feel because everyone is different and thinks differently. Probably the trick is to poke fun at yourself and realise that no one is perfect. Then maybe you'll enjoy life a bit.

Sweety, all of your threads as of late lead me to believe all you seek is attention. You can not handle people in person nor do you wish to deal with them, yet you start threads here bringing attention to yourself. Take a walk and do not return until you are done with this matter.

If she's seeking attention, why are her threads like this 'as of late'?

Seriously, go take a walk... come back when you learn some compassion.
