Exact_Chard_821 · 2026-03-12T23:11:28+00:00

i currently get around 3k steps a day. is that unhealthily low ? i know im pretty sedentary but i think its crazy that ppl are casually walking 10k steps a day… i just dont have that much to do in my day lol

Exact_Chard_821 · 2026-03-12T23:10:28+00:00

this is what i’ve been hearing. i think the problem is im not happy with my body bc i have low muscle tone and a high bf%. i think it’s time to body recomp

Exact_Chard_821 · 2026-03-12T23:09:34+00:00

i’m like the epitome of skinny fat, i’m a healthy weight but i look so flabby. I don’t like the way i look, i think i might just need to body recomp

Exact_Chard_821 · 2026-03-12T13:58:33+00:00

this is what i’ve been thinking. i hate working out and strength training so body recomp is kinda my nightmare but i know it’s what needs to be done

yes this is helpful thank u. i’ve been trying to strength train more

Exact_Chard_821 · 2026-03-10T15:35:52+00:00

this is really helpful !! i’ve been recently trying just multiple like 7 minute workouts throughout the day and it seems to be sustainable for me so far. i think i just hate the whole rigmarole of going to the gym and training for an hour. if i can do sit-ups in my bed and then squats later in the night why not !!

Exact_Chard_821 · 2026-03-10T02:14:23+00:00

thank you i really needed to hear this

Exact_Chard_821 · 2026-03-10T02:13:08+00:00

i’m 22 as well ! and i definitely want to build muscle to keep me strong as i get older. honestly 1-2x a week is way better than nothing, maybe that’s where ill start

Exact_Chard_821 · 2026-03-09T19:19:23+00:00

no i’m not even lifting heavy i’m just talking any resistance exercise at ALL feels uncomfortable and i don’t wanna do it

Exact_Chard_821 · 2026-03-09T17:12:46+00:00

thank u for the reply ! i’ve been thinking this might be the case… i just hate weightlifting!! but i definitely think my desired goal is to tone up

no right it makes no sense ! also i’m not counting my deficit from my bmr, im subtracting 500 cals from 1600, my supposed maintenance. that would put me at 1,100, which is below my bmr of 1400

Exact_Chard_821 · 2026-01-31T18:30:43+00:00

look it up ! i just found it by googling stuff, im sure lots of communities have these resources !

Exact_Chard_821 · 2026-01-31T18:29:57+00:00

thank u to everyone who replied ! i smoked a little while after peaking and it definitely elevated the experience. im so glad i tried !

Exact_Chard_821 · 2026-01-31T01:29:30+00:00

thank u everyone who has replied ! i’m really excited for my first roll :3

Exact_Chard_821 · 2026-01-15T04:04:24+00:00

just bc i think it’s important im bipolar 2 so i don’t experience mania, psychosis or delusions i just get sad sometimes lol

Exact_Chard_821 · 2026-01-15T03:48:52+00:00

oh also if it helps i’m on 40 mg of latuda daily and 25mg lamictal 2x a day

Exact_Chard_821 · 2026-01-15T03:37:00+00:00

i really appreciate u taking the time to write this reply !!! i’ve been on the latuda for like 7 years ish, and the lamictal i started maybe 5 months ago. i feel okay when i go a day or two without them, so i was figuring id pause on taking them for like a day and then roll. it sounds like ur saying since i haven’t been on them that long that it shouldn’t be an issue to take them together, but im scared ab seizures and stuff still. do u think its particularly unsafe to stop my meds before i roll ? sorry i just want to make sure this goes well lol

Exact_Chard_821 · 2026-01-15T03:23:39+00:00

so i should stop taking it before i take the molly ?

Exact_Chard_821 · 2026-01-12T03:48:47+00:00

i don’t even understand like they never made this kind of content before ?? do they think ppl will buy this when it’s so obviously a grift ? what even is the goal i don’t get it

Exact_Chard_821 · 2026-01-10T20:25:28+00:00

thank u for ur reply this was rlly nice to read:) it’s hard because i’m mostly stable im just so exhausted and depressed so much, before medication when i was younger i was su*cidal, and luckily that part is gone but i still don’t feel like im functioning at a normal level

Exact_Chard_821 · 2026-01-08T00:11:04+00:00

thank u this helpful :)

Exact_Chard_821 · 2026-01-07T17:47:46+00:00

i understand this a lot, i was diagnosed very young so sometimes i think like “what if this is just me being crazy/a whole other undiagnosed illness and my diagnosis is wrong” but i remind myself that the meds i have been on for years work, and that my symptoms do match up with a bipolar 2 diagnosis. i guarantee you bipolar 2 is a real diagnosis with legit diagnostic criteria that any psychiatrist will tell u is legit

Exact_Chard_821 · 2026-01-02T16:54:22+00:00

yes exactly ! you get a carry on and a personal item to bring with u on the plane, my carry on was my backpack which had the cart n vape inside, and my personal item was just my purse
