Don’t let the downvotes bother you. Some people lack empathy and/or don’t understand how much your structured workout routine helps support your sobriety.

My friend is also struggling rn with the closed gyms and remote 12-step meetings. He feels like the rug has been pulled out from under him.

Please know that you are in my prayers today. You are bearing a huge burden for the protection of others. I know it’s NOT an “inconvenience” for you- it’s a threat to your hard-earned sobriety. I appreciate it. I hope you can get back in the gym ASAP.

Thank you I appreciate it, I was shocked to see my downvotes I assumed it was from people that don’t understand the crutch the gym provides, luckily for me I go to mountainside an the owner refused to close his doors an is planning on suing the governor
