*sigh* Why?

I just have to rant:

 

1) On the thread in R&R's, there's a thread called:"WHY are people voting for McCain?" What gets my goat is the fact that the poster asks a question about why people are voting, yet shoots the person down when they express their opinion. If you are asking a question about the election and want to show the world your side, wouldn't you say: "Here is why I vote for Obama" or "Here is why I'm against McCain"? I think what the poster was trying to do was to get McCain supporters riled up and then she could shoot them down.

I'm not a McCain supporter, nor am I for Obama (I've said previously that this might be Ralph Nader's year). Don't ask for my opinion and the say "Blah, blah, blah; you're wrong!" when you ask a question for people's opinion!:frown:

 

2) (Related to lap band): Okay, so my dad isn't so hot about the band after all. He has said to me that I just need to work out and exercise. I would; gladly. But it just HURTS! My back hurts especially when I do cardio, as does my heart. It feels as though someone is squeezing my heart so it makes it hard to breathe deep.

 

3) I had a panic attack on Monday and a mini one today. I have an acting class on Monday and Wednesday, so I always look forward to that. But on Monday, I had this panic that everyone hates me. That people hate me because I'm fat and I shouldn't act because I'm overweight. My weight has really never hindered me in my acting because I hear such good things when I'm on stage. I consider myself a very good actress and people usually tell that after I do a show!:cursing:

But Monday, this panic just took over me like a tidal wave. Then I had another mini one on Wednesday.

I have had my share of mental illnesses. I have chronic depression, Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Social Anxiety Disorder. The funny thing is, is that I had these all under control for a few months. Then Monday and Wednesday: BAM! I just switched meds last Friday, from Lexapro to Cymbalta. The Cymbalta helps with the depression big time. But I don't think it helps with my anxiety. :tt1:

 

See ya Soon!
