How Healthy Are You?

[Brijan]

Six to sevenish...

 

[Theyoungman]

I'm not very healthy. I'm losing my health, but I'm trying to change that.

 

[looseliam]

3. I've a myriad of health issues and, you guessed, I'm sans insurance.

So when something starts falling off, I may go to the Dr.

 

[Swellegant]

I'm tired all the time, I'm fifty-five pounds overweight, I don't sleep as well as I need to, my joints creak painfully, and I have to take two different pills to keep from killing myself and two more to fight gas and heartburn.

But other than that, I'm as healthy as an ox!

 

[MadeUpName27]

Hmm...

Over-weight, sedentary, middle-aged, hard of hearing, chain-smoking, bi-polar, alcoholic with bad knees.

4???
3???
2???

PHYSICAL HEALTH - i work out regularly and almost never get sick. i'm not over weight.
MENTAL HEALTH (EMOTIONAL HEALTH) - i would put these two together. this is my weakest link. i'm still dealing with grieving on a daily basis. i'm horrible at dealing with the death of family and friends.
SPIRITUAL HEALTH -my best friend used to tell me that i was one of the most spiritual people that he had ever met. at the same time there is no religion that i follow or really believe in.
HABITS - i'm a vegetarian, don't drink sodas, no drugs, no smoking, don't drinking. i do feel that i have too many responsibilites but that just comes along with being self emloyed.

God didn't make me pretty......but He made me healthy, so I consider myself Blessed.

I rarely get colds or flu, never have annoying pains, and have had few serious health challenges ever.....

I stay fiendishly active, almost never eat fast food, and take daily vitamins along with my own mix of supplements my body has come to enjoy....

Emotionally and spiritually I am satisfied, but still striving for more understanding of what "it's" all about....

If I actually took more time in habitually beneficial things like exercise and meditation, I'd probably grade myself better......

I need to work on an emotionally and sexually healthy relationship.....I'm ready to find a partner again, but I'm doing very little lately to help that happen...

but overall, I'm a happy, healthy person.....I'll take an 8.......and prayerfully grateful as well....

I gave myself a low mark....


Considering for the past two years I've suffered from some type of demon phlegm that a nebulizer and various antibiotics have failed to kill.

*Might be disturbing to younger readers, and those faint of heart*

Seeing as how a day doesn't go by that I don't hack up some green/yellow/white phlegm, which of course leads to my face turning completely red from coughing this shit out.

Oh well, perhaps it's time to see ANOTHER doctor about what the hell is happening....That will make 5 visits for a problem yet to go away...

 

[califguy]

7, but could be better if I lost 15 lb and got more exercise

 

[Andreus]

complications from an injury I recieved about a year ago place me pretty low on your scale

Ventricular Tachycardia to be exact

I don't mind

you live until you die

I have made my peace with it

 

[dkonfrost]

I''m about 8.5 to 9 i think. This past year was the first year that i've felt the healthiest in a LONG time. I've managed to stave off the 30 lbs i lost a year before (actually, i dropped another 4 lbs last month)
yoga, freeweights, cardio and dancing have definitely been a boon physically.

mentally, i've gotten a lot better at, especially processing the death of my bf last year and having to pretty much "rediscover" myself. i'm not as easily frazzled as i used to be. the cliché about taking deep breaths to relax? that really works.

i guess the emotional component overlaps the mental, but i guess i'd say that i've managed to retain my optimism.

my spirituality still ties into the belief/faith in a higher power, it just so happens that mine is Christian because that's why i was raised in. i also believe that other religions are equally valid.

habits: well, i am a habitual dork, is that a bad thing? LOL

 

[TriBi]

Well, maybe I'd like to be younger - and know what I know now (who wouldn't?!) but I'm fit and healthy, and happy with me, my life, what I've done and everything else.

All in all I'm pretty content. Putting a mumber to it?...nah...I don't go in for those sort of games...

 

[smelter]

LOL, if I were a horse, they'd shoot me!

 

[januaryguy]

8 for me thank you

 

[freekyguy]

only 5 fo me

According to james1200:

 

[screwnutty]

-100...I'm a lich!

 

[190E]

i'm about a seven, I have no bad habits, but what really holds me back is my mental health, I'm constantly in a state of depression for some reason or another.

 

[smile86]

mentally/emotionally, i think i'm doing really well at the moment. I'm happier than i've been in a long time and seem to be coping with problems more efficiently than before. i don't think i'd be doing so well if it weren't for my boyfriend though, he comes and looks after me when i'm ill and makes me feel good even though i feel like shit! Also i feel like i'm getting somewhere, i'm learning a lot and making new friends and going new places, i just generally feel good, not everyday but the majority of days anyway. feeling optimistic.
physically, i need to put on a lot of weight. too many people who don't know me well enough think i have an eating disorder, which i don't. The medication i'm on makes me feel ill. I'm getting sick fairly often. I'm always cold. However i'm still pretty happy, the flatmates are less happy, we share a bathroom. I'm not strong either.
I don't have any bad habits....maybe i drink too much
So i dunno, about 6, but hopefully it'll be higher in a couple of months time
