I’d like to hear about people’s most successful approaches or styles (even if unconventional), that helped them to overcome or at least get their various struggles under control.

So for example, Sinclair Method (naltrexone) [baclofen adjuvant] --> problem drinking.

    Regular exercise, especially hiking.

    I have an app that asks me how my day was, I have like 7 years of data based on a scale of 1-5. It colors it from a gradient of red to green and gives a relative emoji from happy to sad.

    For 3 years, I challenged myself to go on a nearby hike once a day for a whole month. It’s not huge. Like 2 miles out and back, about 800ft vertical gain.

    I can see so fucking clearly the three best months of the those entire 3 years were the one month of each year that I hiked nearly every day.

    Talking like 2.7-3.1 avg vs 4.3-4.7avg. frown literally upside down.

    Now I try to go on hikes like once a week.
