I love this forum and the amazing ideas that are being discussed over here. I've learned a lot and got inspired by other's stories of success. I used to post a lot and I was very optimistic and tried to encourage other users when they were posting about struggling in their life.
In the last few months I haven't made any meaningful progress towards achieving my goals, and in the last weeks my mental health went on a downwards spiral, and I'm heading towards a horrible depression (already half way there).
Long story short: I don't sleep well, I've gained 10 pounds, I look like crap, I can't focus, I get distracted, and I live with a horrible sense of dread and lingering feeling that it's "too late" (I'm in my late 20s).
Now it's time to take my own advice and take back control over my F*cking life. I am the only one responsible for my health.
Here is the protocol that I will be following for the next 30 days:
At first, this may seem like a list of the regular self-help BS habits that people try for a few days and then give up because it's too hard. But it's not. All of those things are scientifically proven to alter your brain and body physiology for the better. There are observable neurological changes for practicing those things.
It's hard to do all those things for a month, but the alternative is worst. Depression is a special kind of hell that I am not going back to.
I'm making this thread both as a means of being accountable for my actions, track my progress, and hopefully inspire others that are struggling as well.
The life you are living is your own creation. You can choose either heaven or hell, and you vote with your daily actions. Let's begin.

- 6 AM wake up time
- running in the morning
- cold shower
- Wim Hof breathing
- no worthless internet entertainment to fry up my brain
- powerlifting 3 times / week
- quitting nicotine
