How are you doing with your 15 minutes walks? I had big trouble in getting started. It felt almost impossible. I used a long time to be able to do my physical activity. I did relaxation exercises. I found a sound track at net about birds singing and water falls. That sound really calmed me down. I'm so found of nature. The sound track activated some good memories. After that I was able to walk for almost 1/2 an hour. I was tired afterward.
I have decided that it is OK to have start-trouble. (Been inactive since before Christmas). I cannot afford to lose so much time trying to motivate myself for activity tomorrow (am a student for the time being). I have an appointment with my GP at Wednesday, so I will skip the activity that day as well.
Have decided to try again at Thursday. Hope I will not use so much time on motivating myself, but if that happens I will have to live with that.
One has to be patient to be able to recover from depression ...
