So I had m'self a nice minibreakdown this week. Since then I've been in counseling and had a friend do some Reiki. I feel completely empty. I'm sure others here have had such breakdowns as well, but when I do there's always this emotional lull for a while afterwards. I don't feel much or care about much. I just feel....hollow. Know what I mean? I wonder how I'll feel once my emotions reboot.

    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...
