Getting back into the gym helps lift that weight of anxiety on my chest.

I know gym gets a bad rap because of the way some people behave, but it really is great for mental health

gym helps lift that weight

I see what you did there.

exercise is the best

and before anyone says it doesn't replace metal health help, the first thing my psychs to me said was that exercise is part of every mental health treatment plan and that I was expected to exercise

Exercise is fine. Gyms, like hairdressers, suffer from an excess of mirrors.

[–] Seagoon_@aussie.zone 4 points 7 months ago (2 children)

those mirrors are a necessity. We need them so that we can see ourselves when we do lifts and make sure we are doing them properly

Understanding them doesn’t make them tolerable.
