The Wednesday Wellness threads are meant to encourage users to ask for and provide advice and motivation to improve their lives. It isn't intended as a 'containment thread' and any content which could go here could instead be posted in its own thread. You could post:
-
Requests for advice and / or encouragement. On basically any topic and for any scale of problem.
-
Updates to let us know how you are doing. This provides valuable feedback on past advice / encouragement and will hopefully make people feel a little more motivated to follow through. If you want to be reminded to post your update, see the post titled 'update reminders', below.
-
Advice. This can be in response to a request for advice or just something that you think could be generally useful for many people here.
-
Encouragement. Probably best directed at specific users, but if you feel like just encouraging people in general I don't think anyone is going to object. I don't think I really need to say this, but just to be clear; encouragement should have a generally positive tone and not shame people (if people feel that shame might be an effective tool for motivating people, please discuss this so we can form a group consensus on how to use it rather than just trying it).
Jump in the discussion.

Notes -
You can't "adapt" in a harmless way to bruising, worst case would be something like cauliflower ear as seen in boxers, where repeated healing of large bruises/haematomas causes fibrosis. You end up being internally scarred, losing whatever tissue was there. I doubt you're getting bruised so badly and regularly it's a real risk, but it can happen.
Get your bloods checked, especially for clotting factors. If you're bruising far more than the norm, even adjusted for intensity and skin color, something's up.
