Big day today!
Alongside not sharing enough here, avoiding all social media, ignoring my friends, and generally becoming a bit of a hobbit; I have also not actually left the house in quite some time. I have been having appointments by phone or video conference, and making excuse after excuse why I can’t go out.
I have planned to resume my trips out, and my attempts to walk, for several weeks. I have come up with excuses why it would not happen each and every time.
Today, I also made those plans and I was ready to abandon them when my boyfriend insisted enough was enough, it was time to get out of the house.
I was not able to walk very far but I did take a few steps. This video is the entirety of what I could do, after this we went for a walk with my wheelchair. This is day one for my walking. I have had quite a few day ones but we are back here again!
I am so glad I went outside, I am so glad I was made to do it. Disability and depression go hand-in-hand and I do understand that I need to try harder. I am motivated to get back on the stepper, to get back to do my squats, to get back to trying to survive!
Much love, Chrissy!
