I find that I have absolutely no energy to do anything besides get high after work. I go to the gym, do like 1 pullup and I am fucking destroyed, and I’m not the most out of shape person in existence despite my job being a desk job (for the most part). I don’t go out, I have no friends partially because I moved to a new place 6 months ago.

Please no ‘you don’t’ or ‘welcome to life under kkkapitalism’, only false promises.

    I generally force myself to. Not like psychologically, I mean physically out myself in a situation that makes it the best option.
    I cycle about 8 miles a day. On the way to work I ride half a mile to the train station, take the train into town, then ride another mile to work. Really easy, only takes a few minutes and I’d have to walk that anyway so it ends up being less of a chore than walking.
    Once I finish work though, the train sucks. I finish just in time to get back to the station right after the train has left, so there’s a 30ish minute wait for the next one, but if I cycle the direct 6 and half miles home it only takes 30-40 minutes, so I’ll get home before the train does. I get exercise and more time to smoke weed and play videogames.

    Can’t help with the friends though. I just tightly cling on to a few of the ones I made as a child.

        You could sign up for a gym that’s a little bit away. But in the winter and peak of summer it sucks and makes me not wanna go

        I too once had a glorious bike commute and now wfh. If you already have a bike, buy a stationary trainer stand. Then get a bike mountable phone holder and you can then multitask while you exercise, multiplying your time. I learn Chinese while riding and organize my life.

        Trainers are a few hundred USD, but the amortized cost is pennies per hour in the long run, way cheaper than a gym.
