Intellectually I know that exercising is good for you and has a plethora of benefits, but I just can't seem to force myself to go. I have been diagnosed with mental illnesses and have some health conditions that would benefit if I worked out and ate healthier.
When I have exercised in the past I overdid it. As with everything else in my life it is either 0 or 100, all or nothing.
So I am looking for advice on how to get over this hump. Any beginner friendly workouts for an overweight man I would appreciate.
For those wondering I have been diagnosed with PTSD, Major Depressive Disorder, and Generalized Anxiety Disorder. I also have multiple substance use disorders, and gambling disorder. I am in treatment right now and have a gym available for use. Any advice from you who suffer from some of these mental health issues who have managed to get into the gym would be great.
Thank you.
