The Official Get Well Jody Genessey Thread

Thanks for the support — and some good laughs — in this thread. Hope your Twitter timelines don't suffer too much shock from not being deluged by me. I'll be back! Take care of yourselves.

Jody
 
Find a way to rise from your body and look down on yourself as another POV. Your sufferings will look much lighter. Time erases everything. Take it easy on yourself .
 
I'm out of shape and have a big gross beard. I'm gonna go talk to my boss for some paid time off. I'll obviously cite your situation as a reference.

Not to sound like an uncaring prat, but what a total non-story. What kind of self-indulged individual with the microphone that they have makes this a thing? I think in other places the employers would replace them in a wink. This article was like reading a LiveJournal post. I wish I could take a break from work because I realize I'm an utter failure at something, but, alas, I must truck on and 'earn' the money I'm trying to work for. I've never known an intelligent person, such as Jody, to boast he's getting paid to not work. Whatever.

If a player on the Jazz pulled this stunt we'd all be dual wielding pitchforks.

Not that I have to explain myself, but I have 250-plus hours of vacation, so I'll be using 160 hours of that earned time off to try to improve during this "stunt" that I'm pulling off. I wrote the column and explained to Twitter that I'm leaving so people won't wonder if I'd died or something.

Personally, I'd suggest both of you try to channel some positive energy. All the best guys!

In my experience, if you have that much time off piled up, you must be stressed out of your mind. You deserve it bro. Spend some time with your family, have some fun. Get your walk on, whatever makes you happy. We are pulling for you.
 
Jody joked about being back for the Jazz playoff run, but nobody will be laughing when the #RallyChurro makes it happen.
 
Prostate yourself towards the #rallychurro Jody.


The Rally Churro cures all.

Well said. Depression is insidious and all-consuming. I have already posted a lot about it in the general forum, so I won't repeat it all here. But hunting for meds that work has caused me to gain a good 60+ pounds. But my doctor always said getting the depression under control was the most important and would deal with the weight gain when I stabilized. But now I am pushing 300 pounds. It is discouraging considering I was a strong 230 not very long ago (about 15% body fat then...still more than I wanted but way better than measuring my body fat in pounds...heh). Kudos to him indeed for getting help and trying to get things under control. It can be very very hard but is worth it in the long run. Gotta take what happiness you can out of life.

Good luck, LogGrad. For me, the weight gain has also been a source of my depression. It's hard to treat one and not the other, so I'm trying to do both. Baby steps for me. I just walk before work if I can and for the last half of my lunch break. That also motivates me to take my lunch as that's the only way to have 1/2 hour free. Bringing a lunch is also <<<< calories than buying it.
 
I hope the drama caused by the former utah jazz player didn't cause Jody to relapse. But I sure wished I couldve seen a few Jody tweets last night.
