    Movement for my Mental Health

    Today I did 10 minutes on the bike and then some assisted deep squats, bridges and a few calf stretches. I was too distracted to keep track of reps but I decided that I want to document my bodyweight strength stuff better in the future. So that maybe I'll see some progress even while keeping it...

    Movement for my Mental Health

    Thank you! Yesterday I was at a LARP event where I was on my feet for around 6 hours so I was very exhausted today. I thought that I would get to take a few more sitting breaks in between and didn't expect to be moving so much. So I just rested on the couch today instead of going for a hike. My...

    Movement for my Mental Health

    I actually have two days to report :worried: Yesterday I did some very laid back strength training with 2x 20 wall push ups and 2x10 each side of some sort of knee-to-chest core thingy. I think they were supposed to be leg lifts with bent knees but they were too hard for me so I did them one...

    Movement for my Mental Health

    Thank you for your replies! Definetly helped me to feel less insecure. I took a bit of time to think about it, and I will try to keep posting. Even if it's just strangers on the internet, it's good for me to be a part of a community. Posting also is sort of an opportunity to work against my...

    Movement for my Mental Health

    I missed a couple of days again but I just did 15 minutes on my bike + some stretching. This week was very busy and difficult emotionally. I talked to my therapist about my exercise plans today and we agreed that aiming for 3x a week rather than every day is more realistic for me. Also, I am...

    Movement for my Mental Health

    Okay now here is the real post. I have been in partial hospitalisation treatment for my mental health for 6 weeks now and I will be for two more weeks. Going there every weekday is a lot more activity in general than I had for almost a year. I improved a ton mentally, but keeping up exercise...

    I am just making this post to get over the anxiety of not having done any formal exercise and not having posted for almost two months. There. I did it. Wasn't too bad.

    Movement for my Mental Health

    Today went completely different than I planned because I got a phone call that I can be admitted to a partial hospitalization program next Monday. I've been on the waitlist for a while so I was very glad it's finally happening. But it's also a month earlier than I expected, so I spent most of my...

    Thank you all so much for your kind messages! This community is really nice and understanding. I wasn't sure whether I should post a "bad day" but it made me feel much better and even more welcome. I hope I can give back some support in the future. And I did it, I got back to where I left off :)...

    Movement for my Mental Health

    So... the thing happened that always happens. I had a bad day and didn't do any movement. And then I wanted to fix it today but haven't. Now it's too late to do anything because I have to get up early tomorrow. I am really sad and disappointed, but I knew that it would happen sooner or later. I...
