Hi, I'm overweight less than 100 kg teenager (late teens) and I just want to be healthier and happier. My dad is disabled and I'm a carer for him. I struggle with depression and anxiety (I take medicine) but I also struggle with body dysmorphia. I don't want to do anything drastic but I need help. You search online and its all medicines and diet plans but I can't do that. I can diet a bit but I don't want to have an eating disorder aswell as everything else. So exercise is the only thing, I can't go to a gym I have a rowing machine and that's it but I can also run/walk.

Does anyone have any advice? I'm just really struggling with my weight and I want to be healthier.

Hi, I deal with social anxiety, being surrounded by other people, and generally challenging myself to work out. I got done with my therapy today mostly talking about my desire to go to the gym. I came home with the intension to grab my workout bag and change to work out, but all I’ve done is take off my work clothes and gotten into bed, completely avoiding going… I am frozen and can’t make myself go. I have the choice, and I want to gift myself health, but I am still fearful. I don‘t like the idea of putting myself in an uncomfortable situation or environment with people. I know they don’t care about me and aren’t thinking of me, but I am still afraid of being around people. I am vulnerable at the gym, and I hate feeling vulnerable around other people…… I am looking for support.
