KG300 that’s tuff. I’m sorry for the pain. Do you think that it was the breakdown in connections and isolation that led to depression dip.?
What you explained about seeing the division and everyone picking sides definitely is a painful trigger when you already feel isolation and sadness. It’s like you turn on the tv “news” and it confirms what you feared.
I find remembering that not everyone is like that helps but it’s easy to loose sight of that with what we see on the news and shallow Hollywood entertainment.
I even find game shows and reality tv sometimes leaves me feeling deep sadness. But I’ve reflected on it and it must be shining a light on my own pain and isolation.
I can see reading hear that there is plenty of half decent people. I’m only just reaching out again after a long hibernation for the covid years.
Then just as I made appointments and start to contact my doctors just yesterday I turn on the news and all I see is ANOTHER wave of covid sweeping Australia. It’s disheartening
It’s hard
People do act odd and different when wearing masks and it’s hard to connect. And it feels like it’s all starting again,
I’m hoping though that it’s my fear of lockdown and masks and not actually really going to happen.
Anyway

I wish I had the strength to accept hey maybe this is my new body and it’s OK but I’m not there yet. I do my daily spin classes and they make me feel good so that’s a win :-)
Spin classes are amazing. Both incredibly HARD.. but when you do it and succeed and it’s over how good does it feel!!!
I recently got a treadmill and stuck a big screen tv in front of it. I can watch tv shows and movies and walk at a slower pace for longer periods. I’m even walking now as I browse the internet. I walk average/slow but for hrs. That’s so I don’t turn myself off it. I want it to be a positive experience I look forward to instead of getting it over with.
Also I’m currently talking to my dr about how maybe as we get older it is healthy and normal to have more weight on us then say when me were young. He had a point and he wants me to read some books and be open minded.
It’s about knowing what “your” body needs and at what weight it is both physically AND emotionally well. It’s all related.
Anyway might be rambling but covid hears and lockdown shore has set me back in my recovery but only because I was fairly good at hiding. It’s the coming back out that is hard.
Had to comment though on SPIN classes
That’s awesome ?
