I wish I could suggest something for your back, but if I had any idea what might help I would have told myself months ago.  Have you ever seen a specialist about it? I've only seen a doctor once about my back, but he didn't know much so didn't help.
I never used to like walking, and I still don't sometimes, but I do it as it's about the only exercise I'm capable of. I would like to play sports too but I'm a bit fat for that, plus I have nobody to play with anyway. I used to play Squash (I think you call that Racquet Ball in the USA?) and I'm sure I looked a site bouncing around the court! I played badminton for a while too years ago and I really miss playing both. |
That's a good question about why my friend hates the weight. I guess it's mainly because of my appearance. I used to look much different when we met.
Nope, I have no idea what to do for my back. I used to take pain pills for it but then they stopped prescribing them unfortunately. I just don't know what to do. One provider said maybe I should try physical therapy but then I was never referred.
Here in the states there's something called meetup.com is it also in England? I just wonder in case you might be able to meet people to play badminton and squash. I used to like badminton too when I was young. I think if you started meeting people it could make a big difference in how you feel generally. I'm sort of stuck in so I can't do that, but if I were able to walk it would help me a lot. But even if my back were better, my lungs are still very damaged. Im afraid of catching a cold or flu - I might die from it now.
I'm feeling very down at the moment because of my circumstances. I wish my life hadn't come to this.
