What you need is a routine, no matter how mundane
I had serious disk problems a few years ago and was more or less housebound for two years. Most of that time I could only sit up or stand for about 20 minutes at a stretch.

1. Get yourself up at a reasonable time every morning, and use the alarm clock.
2. Have regular mealtimes and try to make proper food.
3. Don't drink too much.
4. Pay bills and do paperwork regularly.
5. Do some exercises for the body and mind.
6. Don't lose contact with your friends, let them visit, or visit them.
7. Vary your activities during the day. Some reading, some B3ta, some radio, some TV.
8. MTFU.

The exercise thing is so underrated
I hated PE at school and I would only do the bare minimum of exercise, but it just turns out I hate organised sport. Now I walk to work every day, I dance 3 times a week and I do pilates, yoga and Wii Fit several times a week, it definitely releases endorphins and stuff, plus if you do it in the morning you'll find you've got more energy for the day.

Or you could just buy an exercise video and perv on the woman's boobs whilst she does star jumps. I recommend the Hollyoaks Workout DVD for this.

I'm going to go out on a limb
and assume you're not talking about the first paragraph.

I am too.
I don't do nearly enough exercise, but when I do, I'm king of the world. Endorphins are nature's high.

sorry, I assumed you were talking about perving on Jodie Albert's tiny little bum.
don't say 'nature's high' to Monty, he'll have an embolism.

Jodie Albert eh.
Quick google for later I think.

Edit: Just did. I say, she's out of my league.
