Swich in Top/bottom orientation and depression

[DeservingBitch]

There was a time that I would have given anything for a pill that would turn me into a lesbian. Ah youth.

This may be a silly question, DB, and feel free to scream in frustration, but have you been exercising? As in intense and sustained elevation of heartbeat and/or lifting serious weights (whatever is serious for you)?

It's the only thing that works for me when meds don't work and the only problem is that I can hardly bring myself to do it when I'm down, even knowing it's the only thing that works.

Exercising? Bwahahahaha! Nope.

Yes, I know I should. But I can't bring myself to do it.

Ay, there's the rub.

The trick is to think of it as something other than exercise. You've got this great, hot body, if you don't mind my saying so. Think of lifting as making it---you---really strong and powerful and even hotter. The endorphins are nice too. And you don't have to go near those silly elliptical machines.

I totally agree. Then again, I'm an Iron Junkie, so I'm biased, but honestly you would look even better with some sleek muscle. And, yeah, the endorphins are niiiice. It just takes a little bit of work.

Note - You're dead hot now. Just saying that it would help you gain some of that meat you keep talking about getting back.

Yes, as I said, I know that exercising would be good for my mental and physical health. And I sure wouldn't mind toning that body.

But I already despise exercising when I'm doing well. But right now, forcing myself to do the bare minimum, like eating properly, is taking all my energy and will. But it is one of my longer term objective to bring myself back into doing some exercise.

Another vote for exercise

I do it behind my wife's back and lie about it afterwards.

When I'm not doing it, I spend most of my time thinking about it.

I spend too much money on it, to the point where it affects the household budget.

If I overindulge, it impairs my ability to function.

I go on binges that last days.

I have had screaming arguments in defense of it and in denial that I have a problem.

In other words, if you do it right, exercise has all the fun of a self-destructive behavior! But at age 40, my cholesterol is 160, my BP is 115/70, and my resting HR is 48.

i am a sub at heart and have never been a topper but, with anna passing so recently i have been prescribed Zoloft ( for post tramatic stress, depression AND anxiety they say i have). i just cant seem to get past it. and i dont like the thought of being dependant on a medication to put me in moods i achieved effortlessly before.

i have only been on them for 10 days thus far only after going to the doctor at the insistance of my husband and friends. the submissive part of me is in rare form these days and after reading this, i see why.
