The idea that I could be doing less activity than walking 3 miles a week and not understanding how bad I'm feeling because of it... Is extremely depressing. I'm so glad I figured this out like 12 years ago!

Just the idea of not doing something that you are doing makes you depressed?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 4 months ago (1 children)

Yeah. I was super depressed then and it was worse because of being fat. Thinking about that is sad. Ya know, words aren't always meant 100% literally

Literally is exactly how you take words. You just made a mistake. I understand what you mean now.

To the people who dont feel better after excercise, maybe you just haven't found a sport or excercise that you like?

For me it is biking but yours could be different.

I dislike exercising, I often have to "parent" myself into starting, I have to fight the urge to stop several times during a session, and I almost always feel worse immediately after. Sore, tired, sweaty, or various other uncomfortableness, and I haven't found a recovery activity that erases that temporary badness.

But, my life when I'm not exercising has gotten better, and it's at least partially due to the exercise.

Counter-example: tried to exercise, ended up doing more harm than good. Walking always made me barely able to move for a couple of days and continued trying, even once every few days, still hurt me, got worse, and I think it's responsible for how I am now (severe sciatic nerve damage).

Fuck exercise.
