Hello all,

I suffer with Depression & Anxiety, Migraines and Allergies. I very rarely go out on my own and my health is starting to suffer.

My blood pressure and heart rate sitting is creeping up to a level i am very uncomfortable with and i don't want to give myself type 2 diabetes either. I also don't want anymore tables from the GP either.

I have started to take Vitamins and Minerals that will help improve heart health but i really need to be excising everyday.

Before i became ill with my Mental Health i used to walk about 20,000 steps a day and even though i am slightly over weight i was in a good place for my heart health, blood pressure was normal, in range for heat rate and no diabetes.  

I am desperately in need of some exercise i can do indoors. I am trying to go for walks but i need someone with me and its weather permitting.

Thank you

Louise
