Welcome back to the Exercising Depression podcast. 

This week I discuss my reasons for starting weight training.

 I started weight training around June 2019, it's something I have found real joy in and some incredible mental health benefits. Feeling strong has never been a familiar feeling to me, it's quite alien but I am learning to feel it with real achievement and it's helping me every day. 

 Exercising Depression started as (and continues to be) a podcast in June 2019 and now, in January 2020 i decided to record them as vlogs alongside the podcast. This is to hopefully reach a wider audience in my mission to tackle to stigma surrounding mental health, by having frequent, open and honest conversations about living with mental health problems every day. Whether the conversations are between myself and you  guys, or special guests, let's work together to lift the stigma,d make talking about mental health normal.  Please feel free to contact me!
