Australian on the end almost stole that.
Concerned on what was going on with her that she just pulls herself out of the Olympics in the middle of the team event. Part of me wants to be disappointed in her for letting herself and teammates down in the middle of the Olympics, and part of me wants to feel bad for her that she was so stressed out that it came to that. Hopefully she comes back.
That part of you can get bent.
ooohh, keyboard tough guy... I like it..
I was figuring that is what you might have been saying. I'll say that with any of those meds (prescription benzos, marijuana, etc) utilizing it for anxiety can lead to a pretty extreme rebound of it once stopped. Especially if someone isn't working through it with a therapist on ways to manage it without that substance. I would hope that the team would have access to those resources but at this point with women's gymnastics nothing surprises me anymore.I am talking about marijuana. I am not saying she uses it for anxiety but I know many people do, including my step daughter. If she did use it to manage it, but had to stop do to Olympic testing she may not have another way to relieve the anxiety thus it could have been building up.

They were interviewing Michael Phelps and he said that in all his years of swimming NO ONE ever asked how he was doing mentally which was pretty eye opening.
Did you happen to see the tweet from Dominique Moceanu yesterday?
