What kind of 7 year old had their mental health on track?
Ignorance is bliss!

Love to listen to the whole album including this part. So well done…
For anyone interested, he’s talking about OK computer by Radiohead which is ok in my opinion
Fucking hell, what happened when you were 8

No stress became yes stress
It was the divorce.
School had us wake up earlier than desired, homework was a chain around our necks with unspeakable consequences had it remained incomplete, peer pressure had us do crap to seem cool and stick with the crowd, societal expectations required us to act a certain way and be presentable in ways which we were not. People like to call it growing up, but really, it’s just instilling obedience to willingly slave away as the so-called working class.

I had the opposite experience. I worked hard to always finish my homework, but many of my classmates completely blew off both homework and classwork and still “passed”. I knew kids who had all F’s but would get their grades suddenly changed at the last minute to a C- because if the school failed too many kids they would lose federal funding.
Felt like the value of my high school diploma plummeted considerably when I realized just how many of my graduating class were completely checked out for the entire curriculum. I dunno how different it is now; I graduated nearly two decades ago.
It seems like it’s been that way continuously since then, and then during the pandemic and a third of the student body didn’t have the means to attend Zoom School for 2 years and they haven’t caught up.
They grow up so fast

Holy shit, I have never seen that before… that may be the best recovery I’ve ever seen in any fight.
Just… holy shit.

Damn.
Yeah that was Joaquin Buckley back in 2020. Career defining highlight for sure. He’s still in the UFC and highly ranked. Super dynamic striker. Guy he slept is Impa Kasanganay. Also a great fighter but not in the UFC anymore. MMA is so fucking exciting.
That’s when I started getting chunky and mostly never stopped, depression followed at 10/11, sleep went somewhere in the early teen years…
I was already depressed when I was 7 as I was bullied since I was 4
Right nutrition at the age of 7? Press X for Doubt
Really? That’s sad that this seems unrealistic! I think this is still the time that the kids I knew and the ones I know now did/do have the right nutrition. Right nutrition for their development. I would say it starts to go off track around early teens/preteens when kids are having a lot less supervised times, access to pocket money, body image issues etc.
But idk I’m not in the US, maybe it’s a US thing. Not saying kids don’t have sugar and shit here but the “right nutrition” doesn’t have to be extreme though it is a vague term.
Personally I grew up malnourished and still am but that’s due to medical issues. I’m jealous of how well everyone around me was raised to eat a balanced diet 😅
You’ve… never heard of parents that educate themselves on nutrition and prioritize the health of their children?
If they had parents like that “no stress” wouldn’t be on that list.
I have, I just don’t think these parents are as prevalent as we’d all hope

No stress and no depression at 7? That’s great. I would have to go back to 4.
I got 5/7 of those, will be 6/7 in a few months, hopefully 7/7 by the end of the year.
Yeah I have a mortgage and car payment, and I’ve been a lot less stressed than a few years ago. Nutrition is good, working out 3x a week, ideal weight, 6-8 hours of sleep (but I don’t need more than that).
Damn, I don’t even have one
Empowering question: Which one would you start with?
They kinda all play into each other.
I’ve been dealing with depression and other health conditions since I was a preteen. It took me a longggg time to recognize my mental health is always the priority but also ongoing, there’s no “destination”. If I’m the right weight, no debt, zero alcohol etc but I still want to die then there’s no point.
Of course they all intertwine but front of mind for me is keeping some semblance of a purpose and desire to want to be here. For example, I can’t work full time because I don’t cope. Took me a long time to give myself permission to just not have that as a goal. I survive by working part time, the finances aren’t ideal, but I am able to enjoy moments of life more often than when I was working full time (in and out of hospital).
Purpose is the biggest thing to find, something that gives your life meaning, everything else comes after that.
Nice. Hang in there. You are more valuable than your work!

Nah, maybe start drinking less and save some cash while you’re at it?
I played a game for a while that I could either have a dessert or drink that evening. Not both - that’s cheating!
damn this made me realise im so close
