Weird because I get more depressed during the summer. It's during the fall and winter my mood is lifted

School makes you stay inside and sit down for 7-8 hours 5 days a week 100 days a year for 12 years

Well, school makes you sit for several hours without letting you leave your seat.

Who’s watching during quarantine and hasn’t gone outside in a while?

I've been sheltered all my life from going outside often beacuse of my epilepsy, but I'm determined to stop it once I'm moved out and can make my own decisions

I feel like I learn more in these videos more than I learn at school in a month.

Wait so direct sunlight can make you more healthy!?

Replaces roof with glass.

God I think I haven't got some sunlight for 2-3 months, seriously, I usually don't get out of my house and when I do it's usually at night... my hole family is saying I look too "dead"

I was always a strong kid. After a bad breakup I stayed inside for 4-5 months and developed Osteopenia. I wasn't going to die that way. I prayed to God to help me and repented for not taking care of myself. Started walking in the morning everyday, ate plenty of seafood (4 times a week), had lamb's feet, nuts (mainly almonds), greens, dates and fruits. I took dairy but reduced caffeine and sugar. In three months my Bone Mineral Density improved and became normal. I am sharing here so that someone might be benefited. You can change!
