Just curious what you guys think. I have been lifting weights/bodybuilding for about 2 years now and it's becoming sort of an obsession - if I have to miss a workout I would get extremely frustrated - and the only way I feel satisfied at the end of a day is if i finish a good workout. If i don't finish a workout i tend to feel guilty and i get stressed out. And the thought of ever stopping weight lifting just makes me feel really nervous - so if i ever have to stop it for one reason or another i will probably fall into a depression.
What are you guys's thoughts?

i think that it is more or less healthy if you're so obsessed with your body tone. But do take care that your muscles don't get much too fatigued because after all, they also need rest. Stressing them out too frequently may cause some damages to them. Otherwise, it's all right, indeed, even good for your health as it helps boost your metabolism and keeps all body functions running smoothly. Besides, of course, you get the good looks and the strength to beat anyone to pulp!
