Emma and Emily 🏳️‍⚧️<p>Even with the exercise my mental health is still a major battleground. The endorphines are a huge help as none of the many many medications I’ve tried have worked for me, they actually made me feel way worse. <br>I still have to plan and put things in place so that I can force myself out the door and even then it can all go to pot. So I’m having to respect my limitations whilst trying to push myself as hard as I am able. I was supposed to run yesterday but it took my two hours to force myself out of bed and I couldn’t force myself out that door no matter how hard I tried it was all too much. I though today would be the same as I couldn’t get myself out of my bed and face the world, it took an hour to get me out of the door and I almost turned around and went back home a few times. I truly pushed myself to my limit today mentally and physically every step was hard fought for so I’m really proud to of ran 11.5k running until my legs could go no further and I ran my fastest 10k. <br>Fighting against PTSD and complex trauma is a beast, one that frequently brings me to my knees but one I keep fighting anyway. <a href="https://cultofshiv.wtf/tags/mentalhealth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mentalhealth</span></a> <a href="https://cultofshiv.wtf/tags/mentalhealthawareness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mentalhealthawareness</span></a> <a href="https://cultofshiv.wtf/tags/mentalhealthmatters" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mentalhealthmatters</span></a> <a href="https://cultofshiv.wtf/tags/ptsd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ptsd</span></a> <a href="https://cultofshiv.wtf/tags/ptsdawareness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ptsdawareness</span></a> <a href="https://cultofshiv.wtf/tags/ptsdrecovery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ptsdrecovery</span></a> <a href="https://cultofshiv.wtf/tags/complextrauma" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>complextrauma</span></a> <a href="https://cultofshiv.wtf/tags/complextraumarecovery" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>complextraumarecovery</span></a> <a href="https://cultofshiv.wtf/tags/running" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>running</span></a> <a href="https://cultofshiv.wtf/tags/runningmotivation" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>runningmotivation</span></a> <a href="https://cultofshiv.wtf/tags/runningtherapy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>runningtherapy</span></a> <a href="https://cultofshiv.wtf/tags/10k" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>10k</span></a> <a href="https://cultofshiv.wtf/tags/thisgirlisonfire" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>thisgirlisonfire</span></a> <a href="https://cultofshiv.wtf/tags/thisgirlcan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>thisgirlcan</span></a> <a href="https://cultofshiv.wtf/tags/thisgirlcanrun" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>thisgirlcanrun</span></a></p>
