Then I buckled down and got into fitness training and better nutritional health which helped my mental health improve tremendously. It was hard at first and I really questioned if it’d do me any good. I’m here to tell you, if you’re doubting it, stop. Getting into this lifestyle saved my life!
I no longer live a stagnant life, I take each day by its horn and work to progress my growth to the best person I can be. I no longer live in pain or constant depression. I find value in every breathe I take! So, take it from me, if you’re thinking this way won’t improve every aspect of your life? Get it out of your head, because it will save you too!
Way to go!! I agree that our eating, exercise, etc., can affect our self esteem, confidence, depression, etc., etc. Even though we say it shouldn't it's awfully damned hard to not go there, ya know? I'd love to get off my anxiety/depression meds and I know I could if I could stay in control of the physical part of my life. For almost 2 years I did amazing. Oh I'd have a bad day or week but always got back on track and felt good. Good physically, mentally, about myself, and others, much more positivity all the way around. Better sense of humor, reached out to others easily. Just a whole reset actually. But now, after 3 months(minus 8 days)of losing that control again, I feel like I should be doubling the pills to stay on an even keel.
So yes, it's all inter-related and I'm glad to hear of your positive turn around!!2 -
Someone (not mentioning any names here @slimgirljo15 ) sharing unwanted pics of her googol… somethings you can’t unsee it’s burned in my mind!!! 😵💫1

The poor little chickadee that bounced off my windows and was still laying out there later. I placed him in a bush and put some sunflower seeds with him. But something was definitely broken.
I've had that happen where they appear to be dead for what seems like a very long time, then are gone a few hours later. Hopefully he recovered!
@KickassAmazon76 -- I didn't know that about the water. I tend to let nature do it's thing (I think people generally make things worse, not better), but I'll make a mental note of this for the future. Thanks!1 -
I've long thought that we don't understand or appreciate something without also understanding it's contrast, it's opposite. We only know happiness if we also know sadness. Warmth, cold. Wealth, poverty. etc.
I've also long thought that, speaking in very broad strokes, all "systems" tend towards balance. Environments, relationships, finances, etc.
I've been thinking lately that conflict is the manifestation of those opposing forces. It's where happiness and sadness meet. It's what causes a relationship to find equilibrium. It's the opposite to the feeling of being "too comfortable"... which is another thing I've been thinking a lot about lately. While I don't want to say that I need some confect in my life, I do think I need some contrast. My lane has gotten too narrow.2 -
Why isn't there a 'deep' button?
Ye @jjpptt2, I haven't dared to look today to see if he's still there or not. If he's gone, I'll be telling myself a cat got him.
And yes @kickassamazon76, nifty tidbit of information to store. We've had many birds fly off our windows. I let all the blinds down on my year round porch yesterday, there are 11 windows. So hopefully no more flying into those now. I'm grateful I found the poor thing before my dogs did. I still remember the day I went back out to bring the dogs in and they were so excited, chasing each other around the yard. It was because big bad Holly had a bird in her mouth. 2 -

Didn’t feel like engaging with my disagreer.1 -

Last December I moved... same town, but from a rural setting to right in town. I went from having 5 acres of land to have 3/4 of an acre. From having neighbors that I could see but not hear, to having neighbors that I can never NOT hear.
One of the subtle side effects of this is that the lack of quiet stillness around me makes it difficult to be quiet and still with myself. To reflect and just sit with myself. Good side of the coin is that sitting quietly with myself is usually uncomfortable. The bad side of the coin is that NOT taking that time means I've lost connection with myself.
The first step to fixing a problem is admitting there is one.5 -

I couldnt deal with that .. I downsized a few years back and feel like I’m suffocating sometimes, neighbours are lovely but can’t use hot tub or sunbathe in a bikini without the neighbours popping over the fence for a chat and the rest of the street coming out the houses over their fences too chiming in 😵💫4 -

I thought we could see but couldn't figure out how.
It's probably really intuitive but...how? 😀1 -
Seems like far less chit-chatting is happening since the forum "upgrade" -- is it just me?4

I've been hearing we can see who 'they' are but I can't figure it out either. I think somebody's just messin' with us. 2 -
