10 Miles Back Again

I mean, yeah, depends on where your issue is. If it’s the lower half, Bradford presses are fantastic.

EDIT: Suppose I should’ve directed this at @dagill2 rather than you.

Will have to look at those Bradford presses, no idea what they are.

Edit: Aha, yeah. I used to do those for fun. I could see how that would work.

Always good mate, just a tough time with work right now. Triggering some mental health issues that are kicking my ass a bit.

I’ll be back, I’m Wolverine, I’m never hurt for long.

Different struggles. This has more of an anxiety flavour than typical depression symptoms, which is new to me.

Surviving and getting support in other areas. This has a definite end date, so surviving is absolutely a valid options.

Absolutely mate. Everytime I thinking getting somewhere with it, a new arse ache comes up like whac a mole.

@SvenG thanks for the check in man.

I know that taste. Wouldn’t really recommend it.

Take good care buddy, stay mindful and try to go easy on yourself whenever possible. Get help or reach out when things get worse.

Mate, just quit it all and come be my roommate. Low rent, low stress. You have to do all the laundry, by the way, and don’t even think about fucking up my delicates.

I see a sitcom coming!

Or an exciting joined only fans account.

I would pay for either.

It’s not the best. Definitely have a new appreciation for people who live with it longterm.

I’m doing what I can mate, thank you.

These things are relative, but yeah. Things that are objectively minor issues are definitely punching above their weight right now.

It’s a pretty good offer mate. I dunno how the kids and Bob would get on though.

Bob would get what he deserves - a big ego check
