The maturity of the helpers on help is astounding. Freak faceboik and its millenial vibe of selfies. This is real down to earth homies with real personalties

I would have to agree. We've all grown a little and learned a little.

I have looked and looked and looked over the years for a site where people could TALK. And where there might be fun innuendo/flirting, but NO PERVING. I was on a site where that stuff was minimal (perv stuff), but there was no substance to it....nobody actually DISCUSSED issues, lives, current events, hopes, dreams. There is no "family" feeling there, like there is here

So, yeah, as someone up there ^^^^^ said, I can gush and gush about this site :)Finally found a safe place to call home and where we can all get reacquainted.

And, I do have fb...but fb is sort of a love/hate relationship. In some instances, it's the only way I can keep up with some of my loved ones (sadly that it's not PERSONAL upkeeping of the relationship and it has deteriorated to online)...and on fb, everything seems to be overly optimistic and full of "fake success..." I mean...I KNOW those people who post about their perfect lives...and it's not at all as they make people believe ;)

One of my best friends moved to Hawaii and another to California. It's been 3-4 years now, and it broke my heart to have them move so far away. I have not developed or nurtured close female relationships since...and I miss that. You all on Help, though, is kinda like a bff ;)

At the same time though it SUCKED!!!! The boots are new to me, and need to be broken in. I was standing for three hours in boots that were snug in places, and loose in others, rubbing and chafing...

Thank God for heavy socks.

Sounds miserable :(

I was just invited to a party

Idk what to tell you, Nixxie, other than I feel for you.
Everyone else has given you ideas, and maybe one would be viable, both for you conscience and logistically

I just tried doing a second set of exercises for the day...

I've been a "gym rat" off and on throughout my life. As long as medical issues/psychological issues/and every day overwhelming issues didn't prevent it, I tried to work out and be healthy

The thing is....in all of these "gym rat" bouts (some of them lasted months...and then got out of the gym for whatever reason...and some were years long stints of healthy living)

I could never run. I would go to the gym EVERY SINGLE DAY and do all of the things I could do...and then would try to train myself to run. At the end of one 2 year gym stint, of going DAILY, I could run for SIX MINUTES. That's it. Lots of reasons why, but...it sucks

Right now, I've been going to the gym for a couple months. I can run for about 15 seconds.

It just takes time. And you WILL see result. If nothing else, it will help psychologically and help you "clear your head." But it will go much further than that....before YOU notice stuff, your body will notice stuff....your sugars will go down; your heart rate will stabalize with exercise; your blood will flow better; your vessels will open up; your organs will start to work better; your food will digest faster and easier. And then, add the fact that you will start see see physical, aesthetic improvements in yourself, and it will be great and will spur you on.

But it will take time and lots of effort......Someone once said that nobody wants to start anything "as a beginner..." and that is why most people don't start/try/learn something new. Realize you have to put in your "beginner" phase. And let your body take as long as it needs to take as a "beginner." It will pay off

I really am grateful to be in this place surrounded by old friends.

Hm....that sounds really nice, actually; but maybe a little difficult, as you mentioned.

I think that it would be awesome for all of us to get to know each other well on here and maybe have an "in real life" reunion one of these days
