      Never done therapy, but running is a waste of time, I can tell you that much. There are a lot of sports and other ways to excercise that are actually fun. Running is boring and pointless.

        If you think running is boring & pointless, you clearly haven’t pushed yourself hard & long enough to achieve the “runner’s high.” It is indescribable euphoric bliss & joy & mental clarity!! You would be shouting from the mountaintops you just scaled, shouting with joy for everyone in the world to come run with you because it feels so friggin amazing.

          Now imagine football, it’s fun, social, great excercise, collaborative and you feel good afterwards.

                Ah yes. Whatever they do in the US I guess your version would be rugby, whatever involves chasing a ball around & mercilessly tackling each other. But I don’t even know the rules for rugby, is tackling involved? I don’t know. It’s a man’s sport, men invented it, they have a primal instinct & desire to fight & clobber each other.

    I had to stop running like that because my body is much better for looking at than doing things with. But I switched to biking that way and yeah. 4 hours on a bicycle after work every night can almost approximate a monthly therapy session. And what it fails to give in mental health it gives in an ass. Jesus fuck I miss that ass.
