- Just some thoughts on the benefits of exercise when it comes to managing these issues, and how aspects of our modern day life can exacerbate those issues. Of course, management of such issues often requires multiple solutions, and if you are physically unable to exercise that is of course a different story, but generally I think it is highly beneficial in assisting with many of these physical and mental ailments. This is not medical advice, just my personal opinion based on my experience in dealing with these issues.
During the pandemic I had a siezure and managed to dislocate & fracture my shoulder in 4 places , while breaking my arm at the same time resulting in having a permanent metal plate and screws fitted and it’s changed my life massively.. Because of the severity of my injury I had to quit my plastering job which was very heavy physical activity because I can’t do half the things I used to do as I only have limited arm movement because of the plate… It also causd me severe anxiety and still now I hardly leave the house because I can’t do all the physical things I once did and I’m gutted… It changed my life and brought me down big time, doesn’t help that I have chronic pain from the operation,but I do as much as I can. I also have dyslexia and autism and it’s just a nightmare…. Much love from uk bro
Ohhh my friend, this video is so appropriate for me right now. I am 28 years old and since the whole issue of the pandemic began, with its quarantines, my lifestyle was very bad, sleeping badly, being sedentary and locking myself in my room alone for long times. At the beginning of this month my body said "enough", I felt like depressed and I have already had more than 20 days with many symptoms caused by stress and anxiety accumulated also by bad personal situations. Now I am going for a walk every morning, to take the sun and I try to socialize and share more with my loved ones. I know I must be patient with my symptoms, but the one that bothers me the most is insomnia, I wake up many times every night :/ Mental health is so underestimated, that's another pandemic and when you face it you understand how important it is to have good life habits and to manage ideas properly. Thanks for the video and a big hug from Colombia.
Thank you for your comment! Great to hear that you are finding ways to climb out of that darkness. Definitely requires some patience but just keep at it! Hopefully with the quarantines and lockouts coming to an end for the most part, it will only get easier :)

I decided to click on your page when I saw it recommended beneath the Edit the Sad Parts video by modest mouser. Man on man how appropriate, how weird. Coincidence??
I do Modest Mouse covers as well, so I'm not surprised I showed up there, haha
I'm currently in a middle of a depression and my physical activity have decreased a lot. All this pandemic doesn't help either, I'm from Spain and some of my friends are still a bit afraid about playing soccer (which is the sport I practice) so I play once a month or so now, not enough by far. So I decided to give a try to crossfit, not depending on anyone except well, the trainer obviously, and that helped me much more to regain physical activity, which made me forget about my problems for a little while and feeling more confident. But the main thing about facing depression is talking. Talking to friends, talking to family, letting them help. And being patience, it always takes some time to recover, but there will be a recover, and I'm closer to it each day that passes.
Been following you for years but never really been very active but I've become to appreciate your thoughtful videos, your music and you :)
Talking through things is a great and necessary part of the process. I got to a point where I felt like people were tired of hearing about me talking about my problems, so I turned inward and began writing my problems down on paper. Something about seeing them on paper made me realize that conquering my problems wasn't impossible. I told myself, "I am lucky I can barely fill a paper with the things that trouble me most. I can fix everything." A lot of the time it was just a matter of taking the first step. Beyond that, everything became easier once I had done so. I've thought about trying something like Crossfit myself, because I have a lot of energy that does me no good if I don't have a release for it. Glad it has worked for you, keep fighting the good fight and thank you for your kind words!
@@DDball I've been thinking about writing for some time, I think your words are the final push I need to finally do it! Thank you :)
Try out psychedelics its healed the me of my anxiety and depression thanks to psilopeak on Instagram he's got all psychedelics and shrooms and guides on microdosing for newbies
Man holy shit, I remember watching your mouse guitar covers back in like 2010 when I was first really getting into guitar. Good to see you doing this many years later. I went thru the same thing amigo.
Thanks dude, that's awesome to hear. Yep, still making videos. Modest Mouse covers occasionally. Sorry to hear you went through this as well, hope you're in a good place now.
The part where you talked about "floating away' really hit close to home. In a way I'm still experiencing this. Not as much as I was a few months ago but it's still there. I don't know how it calmed down. But now I'm afraid it's going to come back.
I find it's a feeling that I have to keep at bay. I'm wondering if it stems from my general fear of death, and the constant tension I feel, as though I were holding onto my existence with a death grip. Maybe the "floating away" feeling was actually me learning how to relax, but in "letting go" I felt I was somehow losing control in a way.
@@DDball where was your pain have you cured it
@@Truerealism747 I'm not sure I will ever be able to get rid of the pain completely, but I've found that certain things definitely help. I have pain all over, lower back, mid back, neck, shoulders, jaw, etc.
One thing that has really helped is focusing more on how I'm sleeping and the surface I'm sleeping on. My old bed was too soft, so I had to switch to a firmer mattress. I also found that the height of the pillow you're using really makes a huge difference, mostly with the neck and shoulder pain but also with the back pain. The pillow I had been using was too thick. Now I sometimes don't even use a pillow at all, maybe just a small rolled up blanket.
Doing specific posture strengthening exercises has also helped with overall pain.
@@DDball is it trigger points does the fascia make noises? Are you taking anything for it.starting ldn soon what pain level are you at?.how long you been suffering?
I thought I had overcome my ADHD until I lost my ability exercise due to a chronic illness at age 50.

Do you have a Patreon or anything? Take requests for donations maybe?

sorry this is kind of random but did you listen to the new modest mouse record yet? i enjoyed it, Wooden Soldiers is one of the best songs of theirs I've ever heard and can hang with any of their older songs imo
I have listened to it but it was during a car trip and I didn't really get to pay close attention to it. Going to listen in headphones soon.
