What do you all do to manage physical and mental health?

What good health habits do you follow and hope people around you should follow? Me: Brushing twice a day and flossing daily at night. Bodyweight exercise more than 3 times per week.

Personally, I think the underlying factor for me has been being strict with myself. I try to work out 6x a week on a regular basis. Using my finances wisely with healthy meals. I mean, a burger from Louis Burger or a Pizza from Pizza Bakery is baller but in the long run that's a real killer. Finally, I have been trying to prioritize sleep which means don't scroll reels/social media for 30 minutes before bed if it is 1am already. What about you?

People of Grapevine, how do you maintain (or try to maintain) a regular workout routine. How often do you workout and what do you do.

I am sorry my first post was supposed to be an achievement or CTC /salary but will surely come back one fine day with it too. Anyways, I'm just trying to ask: what helps you? In your deepest, darkest of times, when nothing is working? Forget antidepressants for a second! Besides those medicines, what are some things that make you less depressed? The reason why I'm asking is that I am depressed. I was diagnosed by a professional. Meds I don't like because they end up making me feel a) more depressed b) not at all myself; c) give me other terrible side effects Took therapy, antidepressants and what not for insomnia still don't have the right way to handle. I just wanted new ideas, nevertheless, in hopes of finding something that may actually do something. If you ever have been in depression and insomniac please comment thereby creating a "safe space" Can't we ? For saving one life. Apologies for the long post but sometimes I just have to say it

Guys, I am a software engineer and work remotely. I am 25 years old but feel as if i am older. > Already facing heavy back pain, lower back pain. > Facial and body hairs are turning grey > Already bald Are these all common, or am I doing something fundamentally wrong? How's your experience working as Software Engineer. Any thoughts?

Wanted to know if there are certain supplements (especially vitamins) that have significantly improved the quality of your life. I struggle with poor energy and hence asking. I sleep well, have a nutritious diet, and exercise regularly but poor energy still plagues me.

Lately I have started focusing on health and career 😁 So, how many days a week u go for any physical activity? Gym Swimming Badminton everything is fine.

Alright so this post is coming from a place of guilt so do not take it as bragging. I have been employed for more than 16 years now and routinely clocked 60+ hour work weeks till before COVID. Once WFH started, I found it difficult to adjust working from home (especially with two toddlers) and found myself spending most of the time taking care of the kids (which I thoroughly enjoyed). Wife is a doctor and has erratic hours so I thought kids need the reassurance of at least one parent being around most of the time. Around 2021, I realised that my fitness has significantly gone down so I enrolled in a sports club and began playing squash regularly and religiously in the mornings. 30 minute sessions became 45 minutes which became 1 hour to now close to 2 hours (coupled with some running and swimming). By the time I login to work (I have UK hours: 11 am to 8 pm), I feel quite tired and at times take post lunch naps (during office time). My health has significantly improved but I have found that I am simply unable to stay productive at work for more than 4 hours ( around 4 pm to 8 pm). I am pretty good at what I do and one of the few technical people in a team full of Excel worshippers so one can argue that I get things done relatively faster than average colleagues. However, I have a serious fear that this level of slacking may get me in trouble and could even render me unemployable as I get older. Is this just a phase or a manifestation of a midlife crisis? Have others experienced something like this in their late 30s early 40s?
