Can some of you give me some reasons to keep going? Nice things? I cant think of any right now. Im trying to decide between going to the doctors in the morning and asking for advice or more time off work or going to the pharmacy to get more meds to end it all.

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.
