I got really off track recently. I had been going to the gym semi-consistently and built some decent muscle, but managed to get into a dysphoria spiral about my hips because I can't fuckin manage to hide them properly in clothes that will allow me to breathe while working out. There's mirrors and people there and so I've been avoiding it again...not good. I want my body fat to redistribute so badly yet won't lose weight. Still can't look at the bottom half of my body in the mirror without feeling disgust and derealization. Also been having some shitty mental health side effects from this ADHD medication I'm on, then I forgot to take it today and feel like a slug. Sigh...
Sounds like a lot is going on in your head. And dealing with side effects from ADHD meds really sucks 😭 Did you just start the medication? Maybe over time your body will adjust :)
Take care dude and know you're a rockstar!
I've started and quit that medication multiple times but keep coming back to it because I can actually do stuff with it. I hope my body will adjust to it.
I think I'm coming down with covid or something which probably made all of it 10x worse. RIP
It was nice knowing you! 😭 Maybe try and focus on some self care for a few days ❤️ whatever puts you in a nice cozy mindset so you can fight the sick
Hang in there brother!
