Good Morning!

@Former-Member, hi, good to see you. I don't know what it is with me (re going for walks), I got my shoes on, stood at the door, even opened it, but 😖 just stood there, and looked out, and couldn't do it (go down the the steps). I dont know why. I know I can, I just stop. Maybe not having something to walk to (to do) stops me. It can seem pointless and empty walking just for waljing's sake. Some neuro block there I guess. Any tips?

Hi there @Bimby2.

Hi @Former-Member .... 👋

Do you have earbuds, and does your phone play music ? Or you can download iBooks to listen to as you walk. You can make a deal with yourself to walk for three songs, then walk home to another three songs, just as an example.

Hi @Fee1 ..... usually if a post is stopped there is a follow-on email from the mod who stopped it explaining why, and offering suggestions to alter it to fit the guidelines. If that hasn’t happened, it may be an oversight, or sometimes the reject button is bumped accidentally at their end, and when you query it they will apologise and reinstate the post.

You may have found that some words are automatically blocked, so the post function will pause and highlight what changes need to be made.

NB: I usually press the Back button (< at the top left corner of my screen) and it takes me back to where I was drafting the post, and I edit it there ..... it saves all the >> and << that can happen when you edit the paused page. Ignore this if it sounds too complicated .....

Hi @Former-Member ..... that’s how I get myself out walking when I find it hard to get out and go. Yes, it does cut across all the internal monologue to a large extent.
