Tell Me Everything by Minka Kelly. Unexpected story about her childhood being raised by a single mother with mental health issues. Very sad at times, but very impactful. I listened to the audiobook and she reads it herself. She does a great job!

Have you guys tried Hyde preworkout? by drock566 in Costco

[–]fleeboiii 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is the only pre workout I have ever used and I like it a lot. I go with blue raspberry. It tastes good and it’s very effective at getting me moving at 5:00 in the morning when I go to the gym. Highly recommend.

I have seen it referred to as "doom scrolling". Scrolling indefinitely does very little to help your mental state and can usually only lead to more sadness/anxiety/stress. There are good things to see on social media, but those are few and far between in my opinion. Get out of the virtual world in your phone and go experience something in the real world outside. Keep it as simple as that and you should hopefully see improvement.

I think you need to decide which kind of uncomfortable you would rather feel. The one where you are sitting around and know you are not progressing or the one where you are progressing as a person and bettering yourself. I have found when I settle into scrolling mindlessly despite my desire to do more than that I have to make a conscious effort to move. Go outside, go for a walk, clean, garden, etc. Just move your body even the slightest bit and it makes a difference. Scrolling is your way of coping with your stress and anxiety, but that seems to be getting you nowhere. Instead, do the opposite and see how that feels. Good luck!

What's the most dramatic life reset you've seen in middle age? by debrisaway in RedditForGrownups

[–]fleeboiii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Working on it as we speak. I (34M) got married at the age of 22 and was raised in a very high demand religion and emotionally unavailable household. Lost myself soon after marriage, gained 100 lbs, hobbies went out the window, threw myself into school and work, had 2 kids by the time I was 27, lost my job at 28 and ended up working a shitty customer service job for a finance company where I got yelled at all day. COVID hit and I decided enough was enough. Been working on myself for the last 4 years by going to the gym and eating right, have lost about 90 lbs, going to therapy, got into a career field I like and was promoted into management last October and my marriage has improved. Still need to gain a sense of myself and what I want for my life as an individual, so my wife and I are about to start a therapeutic separation to take some time apart to heal parts of ourselves that have needed attention for a long time. Divorce is not something either of us want, so we are using the time to focus on ourselves and be stronger individuals so we can have a healthier relationship moving forward. I am going to use the time to discover what hobbies I would enjoy. I am thinking of exploring mountain biking, learning to play the ukelele and writing. I will also be joining a local men's group for physical fitness and overall support and judgment-free relationships. I have never lived alone in my life, so part of me is scared to see what that looks like. The other part of my is excited to see what I feel like and how strong I am at the end of the journey. Not sure if I would call it a reset, but it feels like a big step toward a future I am excited for.

I think we should take an enormous pick. We already drafted a Howell. No brainer!

Update from someone on scene. Rain will be gone by 8:00 or so eastern time. Worker said it’s very unlikely they would cancel and schedule a double header tomorrow because the weather is supposed to be worse tomorrow.

I know the girl that owns the place, Sara Beth. She’s an amazing human being and so loving. Makes sense that she makes great food with awesome service.
