I was a heroin addict for five years and I got clean around this time two years ago. This is always a difficult time of year for me: my father died around this time when I was 12-years-old; I live in the northern latitudes so it's dark all the time; and since it's around the time I got clean I start getting bad cravings again.
I want to buy a smart trainer for my bike but they're all sold out at the moment. I'm too scared to ride on the roads at this time of year: it's permanent twilight, the roads are always wet which disguises potholes, and there are dead leaves everywhere.
I know that exercise really helps, so I hope I can get that smart trainer soon. I've been going for short walks but I really need that kind of exercise that leaves you struggling to think afterwards.

I have started to go running during the lock down in March where I live. I recommend you get a good pair of running shoes if you want to start. Also I used a sports tracker on my phone to track progress, which helped me stay motivated.
For me usually after the first 15 minutes of running, my brain stops thinking and is just focusing on the running and my immediate surroundings.
