    I am not needlessly cruel and violent to vulnerable individuals living in atrocity several times a day.

    I’ve been doing some stretching in the morning, and I have a small weight set that I do a little bit of lifting with. As you get older your body no matter its condition will start to break down. It’s good to have a better pan and diet as you get older.

    I lift weights four days a week. It really has helped me with a lot of inflammation issues and I really have so much more energy. It’s not every day exactly, but four days a week I’m lifting for about an hour and a half each session. My life significantly improved after about the first six to eight weeks.

        I take off Wednesday and then every weekend. I appreciate sleeping in on Wednesday like you wouldn’t believe.

          Actually, having a Wednesday off is so great. You can go around the city, it is empty, you can enjoy the streets etc. I have always recommended my team to experience at least once a Wednesday off

    I take 100mg of welbutrin every morning. Seems to do a decent job of making my life better

    I hug a tree. I dunno if it makes life noticeably better but it’s a vibe. I lost quite a few trees in a storm last year and feel like I’ve under appreciated them for way too long. No more!

      My wife does the same, and after we tried shoots the first time, I do the same now. Lost our second biggest tree last year in a storm, fell due to to much water, so the roots came with it, but it happened where we don’t need to trim it, so now it’s just laying there. We’ll let nature take it’s course. And we have enough firewood.

      Edit: shrooms dammit.

      Serious upvote here. This is a game changer, it’s right in front of our noses, and it’s free.

      Hardest part is figuring out how to make yourself actually sleep - just lying down in the bed isn’t enough.

        I sleep and eat almost every day.

        Some people are able to sleep at the same time everyday and eat three times a day. I’ve never understood how.

          Routine. If you do it everyday for a while your body get used to it

          Edit: that’s what they say

            If that were true, I’d actually have gotten used to people telling me “you just need routine”, but yet it still annoys me, after all these decades. No offense.

            I was in the army. Doesn’t get much more routine than that. Didn’t do jack shit for the problems. In fact, made them worse. Want to see the several hundred pages of different lab results and doctors statements?

              Lol no, I understand completly. I’m medicated now so that’s why I able to adapt to routine. Just assumed you were not like me.

              Also I was lucky because I changed jobs and i now have a job that somewhat matches my body sleep window.

                I’ve also gone through like all the medications.

                What I actually found to help for the first time in my life (been literally complaining about these problems my whole life, GI-issues and sleep mainly, but up to actual seizures a few years ago due to the exhaustion… or smth, no explanation to them either) was a GFCF diet, a gluten- and casein-free diet.

                But I have so many other issues now that it wasn’t clear to me whether I could do a routine when sticking to that diet. Hopefully. I’m back off it because you have to be on gluten for celiac testing and whatnot.

                The only job I could do for longer periods (I was in it for four years) was when we were allowed to freely change our shifts between workers. Because I don’t have really any sort of rhythm. So I would do a lot of work but suddenly sometimes I just couldn’t sleep and that would just build up.

                Then they took away our scheduling, because of overtime hours weren’t being attributed correctly and whatnot (we just did the shifts of another person, but even if the hours matched the pay often didn’t, as you’d get more from a nightshift than a dayshift), so then I had to quit there as well.

                I should’ve just stuck there to be honest, I’m sure I would’ve gotten disability by now because they wouldn’t have been able to fire me for being sick. But nooo, I had to try to not be a problem.

                But yeah if I could tell my kid self my dietary requirements I think my life would look quite different.

    Make a cocktail before dinner. Not saying it’s the right thing for everyone, but it brings joy, relaxation and a nice moment of quality couple time with my partner.

      I do aperitif half the days of the week, after making supper but before eating it, and when weather permits, sit on the front porch or back deck to drink it.

      It really is a nice pause. Not so necessary now I am working from the office again, when we had to work from home a drink was the absolute best divider between work day and personal time. Just one.
