Running.

Even after working 14 hours. Even when my leg goes numb. Even when I’m not my best self anymore.

It’s one of the few things I can control. And IMO, the act of running is a super drug.

I was in severe pain for two years. Doctor after doctor. PCPs, ERs, specialists, even a fucking surgeon—and no one could figure out that I didn’t have an IVC and was full of clots.

By the time it was finally discovered, it had gotten so bad I could’ve easily lost my leg.

Last fall, I couldn’t even walk for weeks because every step felt like someone was taking a pitchfork and stabbing me in the pelvis.

Now I’m running 3 miles without a problem.

Honestly, fuck Western medicine.

If you’re suffering, I’m genuinely sorry. I have empathy for you because I understand what it feels like when the people who are supposed to heal you rely on a goddamn CT scanner instead of putting their hands on you, listening, and figuring out what the fuck is actually going on.

All I can say is this:

Recovery is a journey worth finding—and worth walking.

And eventually, worth running.

For me, running and controlling my calorie intake have become a super drug. Not because they magically fix everything, but because they remind me that I still have some control over what my body can do.

Three miles today.

After everything.

I’ll take that. by @eliot_____

It’s time to make positive change and the goal is greater happiness. Let go of bitterness, choose forgiveness, and above all else safe guard your joy. Do not let anyone, including your own self, steal your joy. Chronically being unhappy is a negative cycle the brain can get stuck in and then being unhappy suddenly becomes your nature. I am making conscious choices every day to be happy instead of unconsciously choosing negative reactions. I am practicing daily habits to combat my own self induced unhappiness. I want this for myself but also for the ones that matter most to me in this life. #insight #happiness #dailypractice #lovelife by @eliot_____
