jonfirestar Posted May 28, 2017 Report Share Posted May 28, 2017 Sorry to see that your week 0 fizzled out. Maybe you're still recovering a little from the horror you put yourself through last time? Nonetheless I'm sure you'll grab the bull by the horns come Monday! I'm with you for totally ignoring the official timing of this challenge I'm proud of you for going to the doctors about your anxiety. You are far braver than I ever have been! I hope the CBT helps you. I've done some of that way in past although it wasn't for my anxiety it did help me alot and I do use a lot of the strategies I learned to help cope with my anxiety. 2 Quote - strava - myfitnesspal - Instagram 2019 Roadmap Spoiler " Always aim for something stupidly crazy." - Charlie Quinn 2019 Races: Cliveden MTR 06/01 | Nuts Challenge 02/03 | Reading Half Marathon 17/03 | W.A.R 27/04 | RRDW 11/05 | Nuclear Oblivion 19/05 | Man vs Lakes 20/07 | Spartan Trifecta Weekend 05-06/10 | OCRWC 11-13/10 Current Challenge: First Steps Previous Challenges: 1| 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 | 20 | 21 | 22 | 23 | 24 Link to comment

I know how hard it is. I have had CBT but it didnt really work for me, so i only had two sessions. I had CAT which means Cognitive Analytical Therapy (plus its amazing because it spells cat....!) this worked really well for me. Plus i take Propanalol which is a beta blocker and stops your heart racing when you get panic attacks....something to think about maybe or ask your doctor. Good luck with the CBT, hope you get contacted soon. You do amazing and im rooting for you x Thank you. I'm hoping it will work for me. I've been reading up on the medication available. I'll make sure to discuss all options with my doctor. On Sunday, May 28, 2017 at 6:06 PM, honeybadger said: Great job talking to the doctor about your anxiety.

Charlie_Quinn Posted May 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 Week 1 - Monday Goal 1: Hearts on Fire (Running) Rest Day Goal 2: Hold On +1 Chin ups and rope hanging done. After some googling, I tied a knot in the ropes and I'm holding just above the knot. I can still only hold on for 10 seconds, but it should stop me slipping off quickly. Goal 3: Wake Up! Bank holiday today so no need to wake up early, but I didn't lounge in bed all morning like I normally would. Non-challenge stuff I started the juggernaut programme this morning. Who knew all those reps would be that tiring! Seeing as it was a bank holiday today, we decided to go for a nice long walk around the local national trust estate. We took a little picnic and walked up Ivinghoe Beacon. It's very hilly and tricky terrain, but the views are spectacular. We were out for a good few hours but not sure how far we walked. After the squats and the walk, my legs are feeling it now! 10 Quote Current: Assassins / Instagram Previous: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44 2020 Races: CANCELLED!

We're going to Wales on holiday in a little over a month and I've booked this adventure called Go Below. It's a day of climbing and zip lining in an old underground mine. There's even a 70 foot free-fall (clipped into a free-fall machine of course) down one of the mine shafts. It's going to be amazing! That sounds super fun! 1 Quote HUNTER OF ALL THINGS SHINY Intro Thread Challenge Log Bodyweight Exercise Library Shuffle Club Level 2 Ninja Strength: 13 Intelligence: 14 Wisdom: 6 Dexterity:14 Constitution: 12 Charisma: 11 Link to comment

The tempo is just right for a run. 14 hours ago, Agnarr said: True. Is the same with Korn IMO. All LPs following "take a look on the mirror" where totally sub par. Yaaaay, exciting vacation! I'm so looking forward to going away for a week. Work is getting monotonous and I really really need a break from it for a while. 6 hours ago, WhiteGhost said: That sounds super fun! I know, I'm not sure if I'm excited or nervous about the free fall down a pitch black tunnel! 2 Quote Current: Assassins / Instagram Previous: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44 2020 Races: CANCELLED!

Charlie_Quinn Posted May 31, 2017 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2017 Week 1 - Tuesday Things that haven't been fun the last few days: 1. Stairs 2. Putting one leg in front of the other 3. Sitting down 4. Getting up Long story short, my legs have been destroyed by squats and I had to ditch my run last night. I'm pissed off, but I'm not going to let it ruin the rest of this week. A run was missed, there is nothing I can do about it now, time to move on. That meant I didn't do anything yesterday except foam roll my legs like crazy. That wasn't much fun! 8 Quote Current: Assassins / Instagram Previous: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44 2020 Races: CANCELLED!

Not a big fan of the last released single but the 2014 album (The Hunting Party) was of the same quality as the first two! (just one of my favorites): 1 Quote ... a little odd in the head ...

I haven't loved anything since Minutes to Midnight and a few songs from Living Things. But nothing tops the Hybrid Theory and Meteora Days. I remember hearing "One Step Closer" for the first time and thinking What...is...happening to me? I like almost everything LP did, though some albums are a little getting used to. But when i first heard Bring me the Horizon i thought they sounded very similar and i checked their last album on Spotify and was pretty impressed. Best song on the album... 2 Quote ... a little odd in the head ... Link to comment
