Of Mind, Body, and Spirit
Downward spirals come in many different shapes of whirlpools, and some are far easier to swim out of than others. Take the past month or month and a half in my life for example; I have been straight up miserable.

This past week I've been focusing on getting myself back together, and after working out, reading, and going out numerous times I now feel so much incredibly better! It's amazing how interconnected the mind, body, and spirit are. I mean, if I work out and treat my body well physically, mentally I feel much better. If I couple that with reading and thinking then I'll feel even better yet physically, and so on...

Much of my misery comes from my ex girlfriend. She is going through a rather rough time at the moment, and it really brings me down to see her like this, especially when I know that there's nothing more I can do for her. She basically shut me out and won't talk to me about anything... She broke up with me essentially because she can't handle a committed relationship. I'm really worried about her. The only time I've really gotten to talk to her since we broke up is in several minute intervals where she's unbelievably smashed. That and she has been sleeping A LOT and simply refuses to go to a doctor.

What's a boy to do...
