I’ve recently starting using huel for the same reason as you. I’ve found the ready to drink are tastier than the powder. Also have to tried the pasta ? Quick and easy and not to bad. Posh pot noddle but healthier 😂 keep going 👍
Well said man, fair play to you.. 👍👍👍
I had 30 odd years on artics & while I`ve never had mental health issues I can attest to the fact that driving these vehicles day-in day out is very stressful. I used to run fairly regularly ( no gym`s at that time ) as I found it to be a great stress-buster. As I got older my back couldn`t take running so I had to put up with it but I did find as I matured the tension seemed ease. Laterly I found the job to be almost unbearable with the introduction of restrictions & red tape brought about by people who had no idea or understanding about whats it`s actually like to be a lorry driver, you know things like tachos, speed limiters, restrictions going into cities at certain times, awkward people at delivery points etc, etc. For me the job is absolutely shite & I can very well understand why there`s a burgeoning shortage of drivers, because to do the work you have to be pretty tough & having the thick skin of a rhino will be of huge help!
Get your bloods checked fella, and take vit D and a good multivitamin, doc called me to say my vit d was low and folic acid and have taken pills and so far my mood etc is on another level, ive been fighting with depression for yrs now and now can finally see the light.
