Gym and bodybuilding!
I remember when I was 17 I was rejected by my best female friend, I was just a skinny kid. Then I went into severe depression and stopped going to school and became addicted to dipping tobacco for 6 months, that provided relief for some time but it was some low class stuff that I thought would damage my jaws. Then I was introduced to gym by my friend and I started bodybuilding, I started enjoying that sport and my mind drifted from depression and that girl to this hobby. Slowly and Slowly gains started to appear and I started using supplements too, it was starting to get fun.
With my physique and a totally new person with mass and cuts filled up I started to feel like a hero and happy again. I started appearing confident again until one day I saw that same girl I fell in love with and went into severe depression such that I could not even eat. This time I took gym to even extreme levels and things started to get better again. Slowly and slowly I started to do damage to my body, with heavy lifting in poor form all driven by an angry man who could not get the girl of his dreams, I did considerable damage to my nerve functioning and it left me into back pain and swelling of the legs and also started my urinary incontinence problem and severely effected my sexual health. Then the dark days of depression started again, I stopped going to the gym and became skinny again.
As days passed by and my mind going into total depression, I just used to sit on the internet all the time until I started watching some John Morrison videos, John Cena videos, Rambo and Rocky videos and started listening to motivational songs and my passion for bodybuilding started again. I started a proper diet and started taking a lot of weight gainers, self made bulking shakes and developed a heavy physique this time even better the last one and became a new person again. I also grew my hair long and I was a totally different character I felt like just that Rambo 4 hero. As time passed by I started becoming fat so I started playing cricket to lose all that fat and with that went away all the muscles too.
Then I went to London, I was used to go to to the gym but did not take it very seriously. Until my second year in London when I had become sick and skinny again, I joined gym again and started a proper diet I was living again and slowly and slowly my health issues started disappearing. Until one night I drank a lot of alcohol and it was all over again, it was over so bad that I left London after a few months.
Depressive days went on, but a gym used to be under my house no matter where I went, so in Dubai I took the hobby again and my life changed again.
This is it, so regular gym and a nice diet is the answer to all my problems. It keeps me away from depression and other physical disabilities. Gotta start this again from tomorrow, so I can quit sitting down at home and bitching about my past and all the stuff I am going through at the moment and look for a brighter future ahead.
