Stupid me obsessed

I can't get it out of my head. I'm obsessed. I want to go to the gym and workout or go running or something! I need a rest day, prior one was Tuesday last week but only because of snow.
This sounds stupid. I know it does.
I know I need to rest. My thighs, biceps and chest are on fire from all the tiny damages done from stressing my body. My toes are bruised from being in plank so much. I did something to my left wrist a couple days ago. I hurt some all over but I want to go anyway. I'm fighting this obsession in my head. I'm angry that I'm not going. Angry at myself for not letting myself go. Anxiety is getting worse as the day goes along. All I can think about is going to workout.
I know I've done some minor damage and need to let it heal at least one day but I can't at the same time.
Anyone know how to deal with this?

When I get obsessive about something with high anxiety, I take drugs and try to sleep it off. But doesn't always work. So then I binge eat. But that doesn't seem your style. What if you just went for a low impact walk?

I think you are addicted to working out. If you continue to push yourself, you're going to cause a serious injury. How would you feel if you couldn't work out for months because of an injury? Remind yourself of that anytime you are tempted. 1 day off is better than months off.

Find something else to occupy your time. Maybe get out for a coffee or beverage? Walk the mall? Read a book? Watch some TV? Take a long bath? Post on every thread on PC?

I would run, hard, fast, and far. I do also want to eat. Chocolate. I wanted it so much before I ate about a half cup of chocolate chips.
I took something to hopefully relax me some or more hopefully outright knock me out but it's had time to work and done nothing.
I'm angry at myself for being angry at myself for forcing myself to rest one stupid day. Cyclical anger over something that should be nothing. It is nothing to everyone but me. Ack!

I know if I hurt myself seriously it would be beyond my range of cope.
If I leave I will drive myself to the gym. I don't have that control. I can't concentrate enough to read and I've even got a great Hunter s. Thompson book I've never read. I rarely ever watch TV. There's no real content. I watch two shows at all. Stewing in the tub is gross to me. I'm not a tea bag. I already post on most of the threads here. That's another obsession entirely.

Have any old stuff around you don't need? Go smash some stuff in the yard. (Is that a healthy suggestion? Im not sure)

Scrub your floors with a toothbrush

Sitting on your butt

The police inspector that lives behind is home. He didn't say anything negative last time I went a bit apedookie out there. It was his daughter that kissed me. No, I've thrown out, donated, or given away almost everything I once owned. I could put everything I own into my suburban if needed. Granted, that's a big vehicle, but that's not a lot of stuff for 43 years. I would love to burn a Christmas tree, but not for the reasons of anger, I just like the smell of burning plastic. I don't own one and the inspector would surely say something about that. Gonna wreck some cars and tick people off in online racing for a while. I'll get kicked constantly, but not before I take some bumpers and tires out and hopefully whole vehicles out. I drive the heaviest tiny I can, backwards around the track. I frequently win, because I'm the only car that survives. Caterham vs Hummer. Hah

I do need to clean things

It’s not nothing, what a thing is can’t be defined by what others think. Lol, that’s what I’m telling myself when I can’t stop doing something for a day even.
Inside is all «but I want to, I need to, it’s soooo good doing it»
Intellectually I know I need a break, everyone do. For me it’s not going to the gym and working out my body (even though, I had a period I did that as well. Didn’t take long getting in shape when I’m on the high level of things), for me it’s my brain that needs rest. Unless I want to end in a rabbit-hole of mania.

Obsessions is still hard not to do, but you seem to be good at letting your sensible voice be heard- and cope with things in a pretty healthy way.
And I like the way you describe things, I enjoy reading your posts

Hang in there, and knock your mind out so your body get some rest.
(In a healthy, or atleast semi-healthy way)

Cleaning is boring, I wish I could obsess on that every now and then…

Didn't clean a single thing. Did waste a lot of time playing video games. I love the configurability of a Steam controller. I put the shifts on the underside buttons. I have an extra GRID 2 code if someone wants it. I bought it in two different HumbleBundle.com buys. PM if you do want a free racing game. It's not the one I played but still fun.
I made my parents some corn chowder. I don't care for it but they love it.

And then I finished the bag of chocolate chips... So good

Sounds like you did good today.
