At the beginning of quarantine, I had made the conscious decision to use the time to really nail down my exercise habits. I anchored myself to it for 8 weeks straight and was feeling amazing, like I was finally exercising for less superficial reasons, to really better my mental health, to have "me time", to show myself what I'm capable of, etc.
The last several weeks, given the state of the world and a complete awakening to a lot of things, I am so overwhelmed and my depression is hitting me again like a ton of bricks. Many days the past few weeks, it's been difficult to get out of bed. When I've attempted a workout, my body feels extremely heavy and achey. I find my eating habits becoming more and more sporadic as well. Some days I can't seem to hit "full", and some days I have no appetite.
Has anyone else experienced anything similar lately? Or, have you felt this way in the past, and have you found anything that helps you? Open to hearing from anyone
Working Out, Eating Healthy - Depression
Hello all,
At the beginning of quarantine, I had made the conscious decision to use the time to really nail down my exercise habits. I anchored myself to it for 8 weeks straight and was feeling amazing, like I was finally exercising for less superficial reasons, to really better my mental health, to have "me time", to show myself what I'm capable of, etc.
The last several weeks, given the state of the world and a complete awakening to a lot of things, I am so overwhelmed and my depression is hitting me again like a ton of bricks. Many days the past few weeks, it's been difficult to get out of bed. When I've attempted a workout, my body feels extremely heavy and achey. I find my eating habits becoming more and more sporadic as well. Some days I can't seem to hit "full", and some days I have no appetite.
