(english is my second language)
I have multiple causes contributing to a terrible health/mind health. Found the cure in an unexpected way. Three months ago, I started walking 30mn ago just to move a bit.
Decided to up the steps, and I went from 2k to 15/20k daily divided in two daily walks.
Felt good immediatly (happy chemicals), persisted, now it feels even better and it lasts long.
I used to suffer non stop mental & physical torture, these are all gone.
And thats just the tip of the iceberg. I also lost weight and I multiply new healthy habits, slowly but surely.
I used to rely on ADHD meds for peace of mind&body. In fact I was living for the meds and they were a lie, by that I mean 1/2 hours of feeling (too: mistakes) good followed by hours long anxiety comedown or repeated redoses.
Motion is lotion.
Well I don't have it any more but actually it was about perfect. 45mins is doable (which was basically the time it took) and enough to actually get somewhat of a workout. Granted though I did not always walk it but it was the most common way I went. It kinda happened because I would walk and look back for the bus and one day by the time the bus came I was not that far from work and im like. heck with it. ill save the 2 bucks. then I kinda realized if the weather was good I did not need to bother taking the bus.
