Sorry I haven’t posted in a while. I broke my right leg at the knee totally crushed my joint and to be completely honest I have suffered major depression throughout the whole process. Same knee I just had surgery on in may. There were days that taking my own life seemed like the best option. I had cut myself off from the entire world. I decided to post this just to say something to anyone anyone that would listen. The past few months I have become so antisocial I hardly speak to my family I won’t leave my room. Just wanted my family here to know why o haven’t been active. Maybe I can use this as a outlet to start talking again.
 
Hi bro, we are here for you brother. You have been through a lot the past year with surgeries. You have come a long way my friend your family loves you and cares about you. So do we, we are here for a short time so make the best of every minute. Enjoy the people around you have fun and be positive. We care about you bro stay strong.

P.s the Arnold Classic finals just started I made a thread with the link to the live stream. Check it out bro it’s the best line up in a long time 💪
 
I'm very sorry for what happened to you, but don't give up, everything will be fine, slowly enjoy life. I've talked to you, and you're a really, really nice person. (y) (y) (y)
 
Hey Bro！It breaks my heart to hear about all you've endured. It must have been really hard. But you're amazing for sharing this. Remember, you're not alone. This can be a great start to opening up again.💪
 
Thank you all for the love and support I wanted everyone to know why I fell off the map. You all have my support as well we all share the same goals.

A devastating injury or illness like that would really have made me question life as well. You got a great support structure so that's a great thing.

Welcome back!

Thanks man I’ve been seeing you on here since I first joined. You’ve always had solid advice.
 
keep your head up man. Takes alot for anyone to reach out for help a lot of us just bottle it up till it explodes one day. Remember These set backs can sharpen you in life.
 
I’m right there with you!!!! I broke my distal humerus in dec right before Christmas. Lost my job, body dysmorphia kicked in like a train from hell! Was doing ok and just lost my new job Thursday due to breaking a screw and backing one out so I might be back in surgery !!! These accidents can really mess up our heads!
 
So sorry ta hear brotha...it definitely sucks. We all have through something like this and to varying degrees.

On three separate occasions I was OOC non weight bearing for min 4 months. I was miserable to be around especially for the first go around....my wife hated to be around me.

The second and third times were not nearly as bad.

Getting back in the gym after my first recovery I then realized that I didn’t really have it that bad. The eye opening moment occurred to me after seeing Emily at the gym. Emily is a 40something year old lady who has MS. Emily doesn't let her disease slow her down. She slowly navigates with a cane from machine to machine to do what she can to get her workout in.

Emily has a life debilitating muscle wasting disorder for her entire life. My ailment lasted 4 months. Nothing close to how long Emily has to deal with....she is an inspiration.

No matter what.....someone is worse off than you.

The happiest people don't have the most of everything.....they make the most of everything they have...
....this keeps me humble.
