I think a major problem I’ve had involves avoidance and isolation. Poor diet, poor sleep, minimal social life, and minimal exercise have put me in a place where I’ve largely been sleeping, in some effort to hit the skip button on life. Part of why my writing has slowed to a crawl and my administration of a PeerTube instance being way shittier has been due to feeling exhausted, depressed, and overwhelmed. I’m sorry for this, and will try to be better.

@deadsuperhero@social.wedistribute.org I'm sorry you've hit such a low, and I'm glad you're taking steps to make life better. I could learn from this: to a large degree I'm trapped by family circumstances at the moment, but I know there are things I could do to become more buoyant and resilient, and I really ought to do them. I think you're doing the right thing by making sustainable, incremental changes rather than tackling everything at once. I really hope this is a turning point and things get better from now on.

@deadsuperhero@social.wedistribute.org I'm sorry you're going through a tough time. Please do things that make you feel a little better, or at least not as bad. I will frequently exercise at home; I look like a dork, but I feel better when I'm done. And if you haven't been exercising for a while, slowly marching in place will do it.
