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).

Notes -
Had a bad week, I am stable at 7 hours a day but hit that like 2-3 times at most. Had another therapy session and my therapist's only recommendation was to stick to my timetable, block out time, skip the blocks that I missed instead of replanning my day and just be consistent with it.
I also met some of my friends from the internet. These are people I befriended over the internet four years ago and soured things with this summer after my ex-co-founder doxxed one of our mutual friends during his doxxing spree. I am a little concerned writing about this here, too. I changed my username just to avoid getting detected by anyone online, as they do not know what threads I post in. Patching things up was amazing, they are visiting my state and spent a night here, I'll fix my other burnt bridges soon, never good to doxx or argue with people online.
I also did not work out at all for the past week and a half due to my back. I feel 70 percent now but won't deadlift. There is not a lot of progress in terms of progress. The next few weeks will just be me aiming for 7 every week and more. Math Academy has a running board of users, and I am in the top 8 percent after doing close to a month of it for more than 90 minutes a day.
How are you finding Math Academy? I was able to consistent for a while at the start, now I'm on and off and it becomes more and more difficult to get back into it
