Did It! But Not Getting My High

I had to really push myself hard this morning to go for my little walk. I don't know why I feel so lethargic today. I slept well last night, so I should be full of energy. Anyway, I did go for that walk, but I am not getting a high like I usually get and I am very annoyed by this. I hope that I get to walk again later on and this time get that "so desired" high. Maybe it is just one of those days, I hope it passes soon.

Who knows why you didn't get your high. I can't think of the term for that particular high, I'll think of it later I'm sure.

Why do we always have something going wrong?

Maybe you just need a rest , Sometimes you need some laziness to be productive. When we are tired it is hard for our body to function the way we wanted it to be. Another thing you can do feel some sort of high is to have a massage. I know the high you want to get is endorphin, its a hormone our body produces when we workout, it makes as feel good and happy. A fully rested body and mind can produce endorphins better.

@marlina Not mentally, maybe you should try some hobby that makes you happy. That is how you will rest mentally. Doing something you enjoy without stress.

@CaptAlbertWhisker I did MyLot before my walk which I enjoy very much and does not cause me any stress.

I certainly hope that you are right as that "tomorrow" is now and will be going for my walk soon.

@marlina Good luck. Today is so hot that I can do nothing. Let's hope that the thunderstorm will really come tonight.

Did you see anything interesting on your walk? I've been out getting a few things done on the place so I got in some walking that way.

@sallypup No, I detest walking in a mall. No, it was in our own basement, it is big.

I am feeling the same way and I think it is seasonal allergies. I have been tryong to avoid using my nasal spray with steroids but I can't put it off anymore.

Could be your allergies. But in my case I don't have allergies.

Usually on days when I feel the most tired and lethargic are the days I force myself to go for a walk or run. It usually snaps me out of my laziness! it's very rare that I go for a walk and don't feel better afterward, even on the most sweltering summer days! Hope you get your bundle of energy back soon!

It wasn't laziness yesterday, I don't know what it was but sure wasn't happy about the results. Hoping that today is better. Going soon.

It's good that you persevered and walked anyway although you didn't feel like it.

I guess you expected a lot from that walk. I hope you would get your high next time. Do not worry about it too much. Maybe the overthinking and the expectations are the reasons why you weren't able to get that high? So try to avoid them as much as you can.

Some days are like that. Tomorrow you'll be back up to speed and getting that high that comes from physical exercise.
