Where is everyone?

Mannnnnn I am good. Just finished up my first semester at App State. Also, more importantly, I just polished off some cilantro lime steak quesadillas.

How you Ben?
Been good, same old shit.
 
How are you feeling, Breaz?
Man, to be honest I am SPENT

Knock on wood - I kicked Covid decently quick but my wife has been in bed the last two days. I’ve been caring for our two year old which I normally do every day but in addition to the illness… has been challenging. By the time I got her down last night I pretty much dropped and went to sleep but today was more normal.

I have a stout ear ache and can’t taste chocolate (So far) but otherwise pretty close to 100%. Thanks for asking man. Hang around a while
 
Those nights where you're so wiped you might fall asleep before they do but you being that tired/relaxed is what gets them to sleep are always tough but sweet.

Glad you bounced that quick. That taste element might come and go (based on my sister's experience).
 
We had a plan to eat out Christmas Eve this year. Save everybody from cooking.

Called the place this week to confirm. "Open normal hours on Christmas Eve."

Drive out there with our party of 9... Clooooooosed.

Currently waiting for takeout Indian food with the wife and little guy. Which isn't a bad outcome at all. But it's been a hilarious evening.

The taste is mostly there, just dull. It does change slightly seemingly every time I eat. It’s weird but could be a lot worse

I felt the above story in my bones. My mom would always do Christmas “lunch” but it was ready at 10:30. I wasn’t a huge fan of traditional holiday type food growing up so you could imagine I was pretty hungry with a lot of day left. Spent all of my teenage years trying to find food on Christmas afternoon/night. Indian, Chinese, Thai, the occasional Mexican life raft that was open like a beacon in the night. Russian roulette food edition ha.
 
Been a tough few mental days, but I’m back on the horse. This is pretty deep for internet friends, but what do you guys do to get out of mental slogs? Monday-Wednesday was just not good days and seems like I get stuck.

You care to elaborate a little more? You obviously don’t have to but it may be easier for us to help if we have a better idea what exactly you’re feeling. I’m sorry man. I’ve battled a lot of mental issues. Some other mental things run in my family. I completely get it.

It’s hard to explain, and part of it is just not sleeping at all. It’s like a slog or heavy cloud over my brain and just cannot will myself to do anything or see anyone. Ignore text messages from people too. Just check VN or Twitter and Thats about it. Like Tuesday my roommates didn’t see me till like 10pm I was in my room. My memory goes in and out. It’s like a weird general malaise comes over me for a couple days. Which is odd I’m usually an extrovert. But it seems to have gotten worse over the last couple months or so.

What’s your sleep patterns like?
 
Y’all gonna laugh at me but…

Jiu Jitsu has changed my life when it comes to mental health. I really don’t know how to explain it.

Gotta find your “why” my man. It’ll come. Praying for you.
 
Debating on doing some sort of scout school for baseball. But with my lack of college and coaching experience I don’t know if that would be a wasted investment.

Do you have any resources where you could get on at a small college or high school to get a start?

1. Hydration (seriously)
2. Sleep
3. Sunshine

other than those main things, some type of exercise and thought stimulation. It’s also helpful to acknowledge you’re having a bad or quiet day and that that’s okay
