Running

So lately I've been going stircrazy because I don't have a car and theres not much near where I live (just a couple of fast food restaurants) and the nearest bus stop is 3 miles away and the nearest mall is 4 miles away so theres not much where I live. So I've been thinking that its time for me to start running early in the morning. My schedule just changed at work so I dont have to be at work till nearly an hour later then I usually am getting there so I'm thinking I can still get up at the same time I have been getting up at and start going for a run for 30 minutes. I'm thinking it would be a great way to start my day and lose weight (which I do need to do) and get in shape. I get paid this week and I do need to buy a new pair of shoes so I'm thinking a good pair of athletic shoes would be a good investment. Any thoughts?

All time low

The challenge with depression is the constant battle to stay above water. At the moment my depression is at an all time low. I rarely go out except to go to work, the rest of the time I stay home, watch movies, listen to music. I rarely get texts or calls from anyone. Im really wondering what the point is in trying anymore. I need friends who will text me to see how my day is going, to hang out with me at night when Im not at work, to give me something to look forward to when I get off work. This sucks. I need to get out of here.
