I don’t know where to even start

I was diagnosed about a year and a half ago with severe depression and PTSD. I was doing great. Now I have fallen back down and I am having a hard time standing back up. I know I should start working out cause that will start helping but I can’t get out of my own way to get there. Any ideas that might help??

Hello! Maybe try to focus on happy thoughts you have had in your life, or if you like music , turn it on & dance like no one's watching! Remember to breath slowly in through your nose , out through your mouth. i sure hope this is of some help for you! Peace! XXX

glad your here sharing....I know that feeling of not knowing where to start...I was told just baby steps....one at a time...and take the time you need.

If you have someone that you are close to that can help to motivate you. When we can not get up the strength to exercise, having someone to encourage you will help keep you on course. Two people are better than one because when one person falls there is someone there to help them up.
