I have the hardest time just walking on my treadmill. I have RA and just recently found a med that is helping w/ my pain. I'm not 100% by any means, but I can do more than I was doing. From around Sept 2016 to April 2017, I pretty much laid in the bed all day due to pain. Some days I could hardly walk. So, it was like I conditioned myself to do nothing because doing nothing eased the pain. My problem is I can't get out of that funk. I mean, I have a hard time going to the grocery store, my mindset is all messed up. I'm on antidepressants as well, but they don't seem to help me want to get up and get moving or even get out of the house. I try, I really do. I will plan something and then cancel. I prepare to get up and get on the treadmill or even go for a walk in the neighborhood but then I end up doing the bare minimum for the day. Ugh. It is so frustrating. I'm beginning to believe I need to see a therapist, butI'm not sure I would keep the appointments. UGH!!!
So, do you guys have any tips on motivation or things to do to mentally prepare? Thanks!!
