I sound like a gymrat but honestly exercise has improved my mental health exponentially - I do sometimes get all snippy like before, but that's when I'm bored and remember about it lol Generally I'm more content, try to work on my issues and feel better and proud of myself, actually! - ThreadSky

e.g. usually I dance with Just Dance while wearing wrist and ankle weights to increase my strenght (?) (not sure I'm using the right term since I can't even remember the term in Spanish 🙃) and today I didn't used them because I was supposed to do like thrice the normal - Thing is: I wasn't as tired-

as I used to get when doing over an hour of dancing 🥰
So yeah, I'm quite proud! Not even as a teenager I was this active :v

Don't they say exercising releases dopamine ("feel good" hormone)?? :D I think that's why we do feel more content afterwards!

zaelrain.bsky.social•34 days ago

Yep, exactly!! :D
So it makes sense for sure! I just know there's people that see exercising like a boring chore, which it kinda is when you wanna be lazy xD but it's good too! :D

Yess! And the boring/unmotivating step is probably making the first step haha,, we usually get lazy/scared and prefer avoiding tasks that demand effort and energy I guess? :')

jsdhfjds it is!! It's quite hard to create a routine, actually. It feels easier to ignore it and try do other stuff - that's where perseverance enters! :D Pushing oneself it's the key!
