scizophrenic workout tips????

I am putting this here and on another forum. I am overcoming my depression by walking everyday. the thing is I physically count my steps and add them up on my computer. when I do sometimes a voice in my head starts counting and that throws me off. I would use pedometers but I have had so much bad luck with how inaccurate they have been{because of the different reasons}. an advice on what to do ther than get a pedometer.

P.s. I refuse to get a pedometer because acording to what pair of pants I wear changes the amount of steps my entire house is. also i do not move my arms when I walk.. so wrist pedometers do not work.

Count your steps in a measured mile. Then let Google tell you how far you walked.

Idle curiosity -- do you, in fact, have schizophrenia?

I do.

yes I do.

I have a suggestion. There are phone apps that'll count your steps, too, that are very accurate. You might have less issues than with a pedometer.

ty.. will consider.

Kunai, I am simultaneously sorry to hear your diagnosis and glad that you have it.

It is a pet peeve of mine when people call a "hectic" schedule "schizophrenic" or the like.

I am sure you know what I mean.

Best of luck to you. Cheers!

It is a difficult condition. My Mother is bipolar and l have inherited some of the traits. Fortunately, for myself, l am not quite as badly afflicted as her, bless her....

But things do go up and down with me and it is nothing to do with hecticery. I have these terribly unlucky spells. The last few weeks. .. I had the washing machine dramas, now a new one graces my kitchen. Helga's windscreen smash, the windscreen man fixed that. Then the shower broke... well now my fridge is on its last legs...

Labouring in the heat so much, my kitchen worktop above it was quite warm tonight when l got home.... l turned it right down to 1... my food may go off, but l cannot risk fire....

Maybe l have to get a new one?

These things can send me over the top... suddenly l do not want to go out anymore etc... and l get frit about silly things... my luck is way down, yet l spent a lovely evening tonight at a BBQ.... but now a new fridge, on top of all the other mini disasters... fiddlesticks and pooh!!!!
