Kinda bored and agitated. Recently I've been really struggling to stay motivated to do things other than timewaster activities like scrolling.
It's astonishing how they portray this site as being toxicI feel mostly anxious and than depressed, but being on here actually helps me feel better than I used to.
People showing so much love, it's weird for me.
Take it slow. My old gym instructor used to say you got more of a burn lifting smaller weights for smaller intervals with more reps than going for big numbers. She'd laugh at the young men posturing in front of the mirrors with their massive muscles and weights they could barely hold for a few seconds. "I bet they f**k like that too," she'd say, making me laugh and screw up whatever I was supposed to be doing.My primary coping method had been running on a treadmill, but my left hip hurts and it seems that I have stress fracture, which will take several weeks to heal. So yesterday I turned to seated exercises. Runner's high is gone but I still aim high - I'll lift weights and eventually, my depression. I hope I won't injure my arms
Thank you for your wise advice. I'm female and can't lift heavy weights like a guy, but I do a lot of workout. So I usually aim for 15 reps with 90 seconds of intervals.Take it slow.

Same friend. Same.Lonely, tired and hopeless.
Honestly I can't tell. All the feelings I've had i couldn't feel properly ever since 14. The emotional detachment has always been there. Now I only feel faint versions of sadness or joy. But I'm okay, I'm breathing, I'm alive, I've been clean for 2-3 years and I found someone I can love. I guess I'll be fine, even if I'm in pain I'll be fine, because at the very fucking least I'm freeSee title.
