Fucking hell, what happened when you were 8
The drinking began…
No stress became yes stress
It was the divorce.
School had us wake up earlier than desired, homework was a chain around our necks with unspeakable consequences had it remained incomplete, peer pressure had us do crap to seem cool and stick with the crowd, societal expectations required us to act a certain way and be presentable in ways which we were not. People like to call it growing up, but really, it’s just instilling obedience to willingly slave away as the so-called working class.
They grow up so fast

Holy shit, I have never seen that before… that may be the best recovery I’ve ever seen in any fight.
Just… holy shit.
Potentially critical error -> I win.

Damn.
Yeah that was Joaquin Buckley back in 2020. Career defining highlight for sure. He’s still in the UFC and highly ranked. Super dynamic striker. Guy he slept is Impa Kasanganay. Also a great fighter but not in the UFC anymore. MMA is so fucking exciting.
That’s when I started getting chunky and mostly never stopped, depression followed at 10/11, sleep went somewhere in the early teen years…
His parents made him do homework

Right nutrition at the age of 7? Press X for Doubt

You’ve… never heard of parents that educate themselves on nutrition and prioritize the health of their children?
I have, I just don’t think these parents are as prevalent as we’d all hope
If they had parents like that “no stress” wouldn’t be on that list.
Really? That’s sad that this seems unrealistic! I think this is still the time that the kids I knew and the ones I know now did/do have the right nutrition. Right nutrition for their development. I would say it starts to go off track around early teens/preteens when kids are having a lot less supervised times, access to pocket money, body image issues etc.
But idk I’m not in the US, maybe it’s a US thing. Not saying kids don’t have sugar and shit here but the “right nutrition” doesn’t have to be extreme though it is a vague term.
Personally I grew up malnourished and still am but that’s due to medical issues. I’m jealous of how well everyone around me was raised to eat a balanced diet 😅

Love to listen to the whole album including this part. So well done…
For anyone interested, he’s talking about OK computer by Radiohead which is ok in my opinion
I was already depressed when I was 7 as I was bullied since I was 4
No stress and no depression at 7? That’s great. I would have to go back to 4.
Right nutrition? I know I ate shit loads of sugar at that age and hated most vegetables.
What kind of 7 year old had their mental health on track?
Ignorance is bliss!
I was (and am) hypervigilant because of the environment I grew up in.
By 7 I was already traumatised, probably. Didn’t know it back then though.
I got 5/7 of those, will be 6/7 in a few months, hopefully 7/7 by the end of the year.
How to eliminate stress?
Keep things as simple as you can. I swear people make their lives more difficult than it has to be. Get rid of stuff, cancel your subscriptions, keep your living space clean, give xanax a try, sell your kids… That kind of thing. But otherwise, when something comes up, you just kind of deal with it.
Not possible entirely. These goals are unrealistic really!
How to manage stress is a better goal because life is always going to involve stress. I think it’s managing everything on this list rather than eliminating. Zero debt isn’t possible for a lot of people. Zero alcohol is a choice, why?
Just figure out what’s important to you personally and how to manage things the best way that you can. All these things go in and out of whack through life.
Yeah I have a mortgage and car payment, and I’ve been a lot less stressed than a few years ago. Nutrition is good, working out 3x a week, ideal weight, 6-8 hours of sleep (but I don’t need more than that).
damn this made me realise im so close
Damn, I don’t even have one
Empowering question: Which one would you start with?

Nah, maybe start drinking less and save some cash while you’re at it?
I played a game for a while that I could either have a dessert or drink that evening. Not both - that’s cheating!
They kinda all play into each other.
I’ve been dealing with depression and other health conditions since I was a preteen. It took me a longggg time to recognize my mental health is always the priority but also ongoing, there’s no “destination”. If I’m the right weight, no debt, zero alcohol etc but I still want to die then there’s no point.
Of course they all intertwine but front of mind for me is keeping some semblance of a purpose and desire to want to be here. For example, I can’t work full time because I don’t cope. Took me a long time to give myself permission to just not have that as a goal. I survive by working part time, the finances aren’t ideal, but I am able to enjoy moments of life more often than when I was working full time (in and out of hospital).
Purpose is the biggest thing to find, something that gives your life meaning, everything else comes after that.
Nice. Hang in there. You are more valuable than your work!
