I was a mess for 2 years but I've made a comeback which I'm thankful for. I do this workout even when I'm very depressed and it always makes me feel better. Dragging my butt to the gym while depressed is very difficult.

Kudos to you. I've been in a depressed mode and the fact that you can stick to it even then is really good. So far I've only been able to make it to ard 2-1/2 miles on the treadmill and a mile on the elliptical. I just start back in the gym. Back in 2012 I could workout for 3 hours straight but it was bc I was manic. I never knew why. This right when my onset started and right before I was diagnosed. It's funny to me now why I had so much energy. LOL. I'm trying to increase my time and to be able to do things outside the gym.
