Stuck in a big rut
As the title says. I’m stuck. I used to be a confident, self motivated person until everything fell apart. I had a family, a dream job and my health. I absolutely loved going to the gym, running about 35-40k a week and playing sports. About 10 years ago it all started to unravel. I lost my job and my family in quick succession and then I struggled with anxiety and depression for several years. I was at the point where I didn’t really care if I lived or died. Finally when I started to put my life back together, Covid hit and my health regressed again. I’ve been struggling with my weight and my fitness ever since. I’m easily about 60lbs overweight and I’d have a hard time running across the street now. About a year ago, I started trying to run again, but I had terrible back and hip pain… likely due to the extra weight Im carrying around. I have been able to piece my life back together. I have a great job and I met someone truly amazing. all that’s left for me is to get my sorry ass off the couch. I still deal with work anxiety and by the end of each day, I’m mentally spent and don’t want to do anything.
I know what needs to be done, but I know how hard it will be to get things back. I’m not sure I have it in me anymore. Any of you hero’s out there have any advice or kind words for someone like me?
