Hey 49er,
If that was a rant, it was a very coherent one. I am very sorry about your ongoing sinusitis. A good friend has it, and I know from him how much it impacts his life on a daily basis.
I am being picky here, so bear with me. I would posit that many who are depressed or anxious are suffering from physical ailments that are not always psychological in origin. I do not draw a firm line between psychologically based
depression and somatically based depression. This are ongoing thoughts for myself. The researchers who ran the quoted study may have lumped depression and anxiety into the merely psychological, and that would be a questionable assumption.That you suffer from a physical ailment that some may attempt to psyhcologize, I imagine that could be frustrating
and even insulting.I dig a pony.
