You've got one right here.

Welcome to Daily Strength, princess!!

I have more depression, and my anxiety causes me to withdraw and be quiet, so it is not so noticeable as some.

But it still is difficult to deal with!

I am also new here. It's a little strange, as I'm not used to talking about it, because I don't personally know anyone that deals with this stuff. I hope to meet people that will understand me now

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
