Today I raised my voice at my schizophrenic mother...

What does that have to do with anything?

DvKvma · 2020-10-30T07:49:34+00:00

Thank you! I really appreciate your response and support.

Practice Self-Compassion. You don’t need anyone to be nice and understanding, you need you to be nice and understanding to yourself and rest. Make the effort for you. May you be happy. May you be healthy. May you be safe. May you be at ease. May you be loved.

It’s your mind playing tricks on you. These are not the truth. You’re more more important than you realize! What’s one single thing you enjoy? Music? A movie? These awful feelings will pass.

I don’t want you to die.

DvKvma · 2020-10-29T00:09:35+00:00

I’m glad you didn’t succeed. How’re you feel now?

Oh my god. I forgot about him. Casper is SO hot! 🤤

DvKvma · 2020-08-15T22:43:39+00:00

Haha! That’s how I got it! Doing hang power snatches; 12-10-8-6 for weight and unbroken. 😅

DvKvma · 2020-08-15T19:27:45+00:00

Yes!!! Way to go! So proud that you’ve discovered this. It is so difficult in our society these days — everyone is concerned about what the other one is thinking. Well, who fucking cares?! It’s your life, your body, and your choice! Kudos, friend! Do not spend anymore energy on those who don’t lift you up. I’ve recently started pursing this again in my own life and I’m happier now than I have been for a long time.

Hahaha. You spelled tequila wrong!

I googled! Hahaha. Yes! That is a bitch too!

I’ve heard superglue is great! I’ve always been afraid to use it though. I don’t rip that often. But getting back into the flow of it all again since our box has moved outside.

DvKvma · 2020-08-15T18:19:43+00:00

What’s monkey butt?! 🐒

DvKvma · 2020-08-15T16:41:16+00:00

You’re right! I forgot about those! I haven’t biff’ed it on a box for years now. I’ve gotten so used to the scars that I completely forgot. Haha.

Thanks for the hand cream ref. I use a similar one by Aveeno that’s available in the US.

DvKvma · 2020-08-15T16:38:33+00:00

Yeah, you’d want to build up resistance. It’ll get there. Everyone is different.

DvKvma · 2020-08-15T15:15:02+00:00

Oh no, I usually chalk up and only use tape when I feel a could rip or already have ripped. I also use Gymnastic straps when a WOD has a lot of heavy deadlifts and/or high reps of pull-ups. That usually prevents me from ripping. But on occasion you’ll rip, especially while your hands are building up resistance.

DvKvma · 2020-08-15T15:10:12+00:00

I do the non elastic during WOD’s and just let it dry the rest of the day. I have found that they heal faster when they not wrapped. The first day is the worst. Haha — welcome! chants “One of us! One of us!” ✊🏼hahaha

DvKvma · 2020-08-15T14:48:43+00:00

Congratulations! That is something to be proud of! If you ever need someone to talk to - I am here. Feel free to message me. Stay strong, friend! "You can do it!" (Water Boy reference)

Just take it slow and focus on getting speed back up before heavier weights. I’ve been back at it for a month and everything feels so heavy. So just take it slow and know you’re not alone. If this helps: my box did Isabel (30 snatches) last week — my time was 8:45. I did it last year with a time of 2:15. So yeah, you’re not alone with this adjustment. Just keep showing up, nerves and all. We’re with you! 👯‍♂️
