I ate 2 whole eggs, 245 g egg whites and 1 cup steel cut oats at 7 am, in about 10 min I’ll have 6 oz tuna, 14 g Mayo, 30 g dill relish, 2 slices sour dough 100 g tomato… and at noon I’ll have 7 oz 93/7 ground beef, 100 g jasmine rice, and 10 asparagus. Pre workout will be 30 g whey, 150 g egg whites, and 8 oz OJ with a pop tart… training bench and deadlift tonight, and my wife will be having her second bench session, a little speed work for her with bands…
The state of my mental health is in absolute disarray, I visited my friends grave the other day for the first time in almost 10 years, I broke down and cried like a bitch. I think I’ve said it on here before, but he was murdered, 16 years ago, shot through the head at close range with a 40 cal. I haven’t had a real friend since he passed away, and honestly, other than my wife I have no friends, I have acquaintances. My wife told me she thinks I need to see a counselor, talk about some of the shit floating around my head that haunts me all the time, to which I had an epic melt down and told her that if I couldn’t even tell her that shit what makes her think I could tell some asshole stranger trying to get into my fucking brains… I struggle with emotion, anger is the only one I’m good at showing… so we’ll probably fight about that a little more tonight after the gym. All in all, a nice little day planned out
 
Food sounds good…I was gonna ask yesterday how your head space was,now I know…I havent visited my marine buddy’s grave in awhile,it just makes me cry, and I honestly havent seen any good from me visiting them, maybe I’ll never go again,my wife would go,but I wouldn’t let that happen.
 
You should give it a shot. I’m not going to lie you. Talking with a counselor is awkward as hell the first few visits and you may even have to go through a few to find the right one. Everyone shit is different but it has helped me through some of my negative thinking.
 
It seems more often than not here lately the meds are doing nothing, but I don’t want to call the doctor… and my wife notices every little change with me, like my temperament. I’m not very good at dealing with things when I’m level headed, so to try and deal with things while I’m off isn’t ever a good situation.
 
No shame in visiting your friend and shedding some tears, totally normal. I would give counseling a shot , can’t hurt. Sometimes it takes some trial and error to find the right fit for you but can definitely help. I have a friend that’s a counselor and sometimes I just tell her what’s going on in my head and she gives me her perspective and it’s helpful. Just the other day I asked her about my night terrors. I’ve woken up screaming so loud that I wake up the whole fam. Involves me trying to help someone and I can’t get to them or they don’t hear me. Literally 5 min conversation in the gym and I felt better.
 
You should go see your comrade. Bring your wife and share that experience. Tell her stories about him amd good times that you guys had. It’ll help not only you but your relationship. If rolls were reversed would he visit your grace? No guilt just go
 
Had three doctors’ appointments this morning (I like to knock them out all on the same day), so ate four whole eggs, 8 strips of bacon, two pieces of wheat toast and slugged back two cups of coffee and off I went. Just got back and will now have 8oz. of not-so-lean ground beef and 100g of jasmine rice with hotsauce. Will drink some whey and eat a couple of rice cakes with almond butter and bananas and honey before leg day at the big boy gym. Going to give the safety squat bar a try.

@JB_rD81 , I completely sympathize with your attitude towards counseling. I have tried it three times and could never really get anything out of it. First, I felt like I could run circles around each counselor intellectually, so it was hard for me to believe that they were going to tell me something I didn’t already know. Second, I just felt like there was NO WAY they were going to be able to discern anything accurate or meaningful about me in a couple of hours a week. Maybe after five years of that? But there was no way I was going to invest that kind of time with such an uncertain return.
 
Today is no gym for me. Gonna soak my feet in an ice bath and ice my elbow. Ate four eggs and a pound of steak hash and drank a cup of egg whites for breakfast. So far drank half gallon water and ate a handful almonds and a cliff bar and a clean protein bar. For lunch an Asiago chicken bacon ranch from Wendy’s and a half thing fries and large ice tea.

Tracking steps at work. It’s lunch now so am at 11,000 already.
 
Nope, seen a few friends there,anumber of times,before ,during and after counseling they dont know I’m there or not,and I feel worse afterwards,and shit does come outta my mouth about things on the occasion to my wife…
 
Not much for me work but its too hot to do much. I ate mre, brealfast potatoes, and 200g egg white whotes 2 whole eggs 3 slices of canadian bacon for brealfast.
Lunch was 250g of jasmine rice 180g sjredded chicken with some veggies. And a small bag of fritos, oh and a choco chip cookie.
