I don't exercise as much as I should. It's not a body image thing, or even a strength thing, it's all mental. Because whenever i exercise it lets me forget about all the confusion in my brain, and just focus on that physical pursuit and current moment. For a while I didn't exercise at all, and when I went back to an exercise class yesterday it must've been a shock or something, because I couldn't do it! I made it through about half the class before I suddenly felt really light-headed, faint, cold. And I had to dip out and hide in the bathroom. Something like that never happened to me before. I couldn't help feeling weak, and stupid. I didn't get that glow I usually get after exercise, because I just felt self-hatred.
I'll keep exercising.
