Need to get healthy.
Lately with all the stress I’ve been under and all the emotional things I’ve been dealing with, I’ve been trying to find ways to keep myself occupied and make myself feel better. One of the things I did, with the advice of my mom, is make an appointment at the counseling center on campus; my first appointment isn’t until October 20th (it’s all they had) so I have to hang in there until then. Another of the things, I’ve been checking into is joining a gym and I’m in the process of finding one that is open 24 hours. We have a rec center on campus but because it’s a larger university with many people who go there, you have to wait in line just to use the machines, so I decided I’d find a gym off campus. I’m hoping there is a 24 hour one around here some where that way I can go any time I want and when I get a job, I can go after work if I feel like it. I’ve also been trying to eat healthier and started buying more fruit to eat for snacks and such. Another thing I’ve been looking into is vitamins to add to my routine once I start up the exercise thing; I need to lose weight and become more healthy in general, and I don’t want to resort to taking a diet pill like Fenphedra but I figured that adding vitamins/supplements to my diet would help in general and make me feel better overall.
What it comes down too is that I am depressed and I admit that and I’m taking the correct measures to get out of the “hole” I’m in. I’m not depressed because I’m on my own, have my own apartment, or left South Carolina but mainly because I have no one to be around or hang out with - that’s my biggest problem right now. The good thing about it though is the fact that I’ve been through counseling before and I’ve been through the depression stage before (when my parents got divorced) and I’ve gotten out of it too, so I know I can do this. I’ll be okay in the end
