I did enjoy going down the footy club, but he won't. I didn't enjoy playing football and didn't enjoy going for my runs and things like that. And at the time, I didn't know what I was going through. Therefore, I thought I was untreatable.

I do exercise regularly. I do a lot of craft work, to keep myself keep my creative side going, I guess a very committed to doing things that people would typically call self care to make sure that I'm doing everything I can to keep myself well.
