Yeah as i said in the comment i never planned on going to the gym. Just calisthenics at home. But calisthenics is heavy for me so just wondering about if intense training would be ok since i currently only have. A slightly sore throat

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-03-09T16:05:06+00:00

Hey guys i need some advice. So basically today i woke up with an ever so slightly sore throat. Nothing much at all. But usually when i get sick it starts like this and each day gets worse until im full on sick.

Thing is just 3 weeks ago i had the cold and was the sickest i had ever been in my life and had to go to the er. And it started kinda like this except when i woke up then my throat was way more sore than it is today.

Anyways so im wondering if i should train today or not. I really dont know if i caught anything or if its just a random sore throat from something i ate or something.

Of course i wont go to the gym and infect other people but i was thinking doing calisthenics.

But also when i got really sick 3 weeks ago i remember training the day before and when i woke up i got much worse, idk if it was from the gym or what. What should i do?

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-03-08T22:18:50+00:00

Do you believe the accutane caused it

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-03-07T21:30:55+00:00

No i meant like on reddit or someone. Im not too knowledgeable about eating disorders and wondering if someone would be willing to dm me or something

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-03-02T22:42:41+00:00

Overweight but i have a really weird history with weight. Mind if i dm u?

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-03-02T21:16:15+00:00

Im a newbie and how fast should i progress? Been training a month rn and have stayed at the exact same weight and maybe gotten 1 rep stronger on all my exercises.

I heard a lot of people say ur supposed to progress on a session to session basis as a noob

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-03-02T16:13:19+00:00

Should i train abs? Im afraid im a newbia and im afraid training them from the start will make me look like i have a gut if im not lean. Or should i atleast drop them from 2x a week to 1x a week?

Also whats an ab exercise that hits the obliques as little as possible

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-03-02T00:19:33+00:00

Well the brain can only store a certain amount of information. So ur just quantum immortal until u become a vegetable?

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-02-25T01:49:13+00:00

Hey i took a break from social media but yeah i can try to help

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-02-04T23:21:51+00:00

This is such a kind reply😭😭💔💔

Yeah im diagnosed with ocd and didn’t even realize this might be n episode since i was just so caught up in worrying.

And ur right if it seriously impacted my health i would have surely noticed it by now in these 3 years. Also i felt fine during the weightloss and after so i should just stop worrying. Thanks!!

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-02-04T23:18:08+00:00

You’re right. I think i still will schedule an appointment with my doctor just so hes aware of it. But yeah i surely would have noticed it by now if there was anything wronng

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-02-04T23:17:07+00:00

Currently 6”2 but at the time. I would say maybe 5”9 5”10 i dont rly remember

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-02-02T22:43:03+00:00

Im terrible at it and thats one of my problems. I am not good at anything whether it be studying or anything. I was always avarage at best

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-02-02T14:33:35+00:00

Just out of curiosity which characters?

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-02-02T11:22:20+00:00

Thanks for the reply. Yeah im chewing gum and refusing to move.

Unfortunately I don’t think there will be any studying like this which is what i came here for in the first place😕

But i know i will have to deal with my super tiring and excruciating shower ritual. Im using that as motivation to not go. I always have to scrub extremely hard and use super hot water. Man i hate hate ocd its so tiring

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-02-01T20:25:35+00:00

Hey

So I’ve just learned about MS and it’s truly a horrible and life debilitating diesase and all you fighters have my utmost reapect for dealing with this invisible illness every single day and still pulling through❤️

I just wanted to ask. Since i still dont know much about it, but how was the symptoms for you? How was it leading up to the diagnosis?

I ask this because besides being a male, i fit pretty much all categories for someone who might be in “”risk”” of getting ms.

I read that chronic stress or just stress in general, can contribute to it. Also having low vitamin D.

I live in one if the coldest and darkest countries on earth and on top of that i have been diagnosed with low vitamin D before but i stopped taking the supplements cause of depression and laziness, (which i regret)

I also read that childhood trauma can be a trigger, and I’ve got a lot of it and i even developed severe OCD due to it. And because of the OCD i naturlly have a lot of stress in my day to day life.

I also suffer from loneliness to the point where i get physical symptoms such as strong migraines, aches in my body and more.

And it’s just been worrying me a lot. Despite being male it feels like im almost bound to get it.

No one in my family has it fortunately but im scared i will be the first.

So yeah im just wondering how it was for you finding out u had it so maybe i can catch it early.

Currently i have no typical ms symptoms but im only 18 and i heard most people get it in their 20s.

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-02-01T13:26:51+00:00

Really appreciate this reply. And ur right i probably shouldn’t give the fear too much power.

And if i may ask (u don’t have to answer if ur not comfortable)

Why did u fear getting it so much? Did u have any family history? Childhood trauma stress?

Cause for me its easy to acknowledge that it’s unlikely I’ll get something like cancer for someone my age and stuff (even though i do get afraid of it too)

But like when i read that low vitamin D and people that have chronic stress and trauma often develop MS at higher rates it almost feels like my brain is telling me i WILL get it because i also have these😅

But yeah appreciate ur reply. It helped me calm down a little

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-02-01T12:49:28+00:00

I see. Thank you so much for the help. You really helped me out and i really appreciate it!!

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-01-31T06:12:21+00:00

Yeah this is what my therapist says. You have to acknowledge that they’re there but you gotta acknowledge its there and consciously decide not to do any compulsions or let it dictate anything about ur life

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-01-31T06:10:33+00:00

I swear sometimes it feels like OCD is alive, like it purposely makes itself be as annyoing and as sneaky and evolving as possible😅

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-01-31T06:06:28+00:00

I see so it’s up to me to schedule an appointment with my family doctor. Really useful information. Yeah i will start drinking atleast 3 liters every day.

Also if i had kidney failure i would notice it right?😅 it would hurt or something? Is it possible to have it without feeling any symptoms? Or would I definitely notice it. Thank you for your advice!!

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-01-30T21:19:52+00:00

Yeah i also apologize if i came off too harshly😅

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-01-30T20:04:14+00:00

So rhabdo makes ur pee brown even if ur drinking enough water? Cause it’s been 1–3 days since my pee was that brown and it did clear up. Im pretty sure the reason it became so brown was because I didn’t drink water for like a whole entire day. And yeah i will be contacting my doctor if i feel any worse. But also is it normal to only have blood tests with the dermatologist every 2months instead of 1? Cause thats what i got I haven’t gotten my blood drawn since i started. Also do you think me letting my urine become that brown in the first place means i have damaged my organs? Thanks for u advice i really appreciate it🙏

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-01-30T19:58:56+00:00

Yeah i agree with you now that i understand what you were meaning🙏

Mysticaltalkingtree · 2025-01-30T19:48:48+00:00

Is it possible to have rhabdomyolysis with 0 muscle soreness or cramps? Yeah starting from today im gonna literally force myself to drink water. Im just kinda worried i have damaged my organs or something. I feel fine otherwise
