I feel the same way, 50M. It’s hard to find time to exercise as a single parent. Adding all of the emotional damage has made even going for walks seem impossible. I keep hoping that my body/mind will heal itself but I’m really starting to consider getting my testosterone checked.

The mental load of divorcing takes more energy out than you think. Have you also lost weight? Are you sleeping well? Are you eating healthy and enough? Are you looking after your mental health?
Take into account you are also ageing. Depression can cause this as well. Are you in therapy?
What are you doing to recharge? I know this feeling and it is a tough one to get to the underlying issue.
Don't stop trying until you get to the bottom of it. Let me know what works for you.

I'd pay for a complete blood panel to see what's up. Also, what's your BMI? If you're overweight it just makes everything worse.

250mg weekly testosterone. Clean diet. Lift 4-5 times per week. 10 hours sleep per day. Low stress. You'll feel like you could kick the behinds of10 of your 21yo selves, and you could.

Have you had a complete blood panel and had your testosterone levels checked?

Sounds like depression or potentially psychological conditions that could be affecting the physical. You could take pharmaceutical compounds as suggested but if it is a psycho-emotional foundationally, you might still have issues. Have you considered therapy? Prayer? When was the last time you did something you love? I got back into old hobbies immediately and it sort of helped to spark my spirit. Small suggestion would be long walks. I’m actually getting up now to go to the park and walk a couple hours before church. I fucking love it haha if you can get an audiobook or podcast or prayer/music/whatever, I highly recommend this. You can do a brisk walk and hit zone 2 cardio (heart rate varies on fitness level and age) so it’ll help with fat loss and energy but also is fun to me at least or enjoyable so it might help you mentally as a stress reduction and physically with endorphin release and potentially dopamine too. I mention zone 2 because someone mentioned retatrutide which is for fat loss. Godspeed

Interested in the answered myself; as I’m in a similar situation, child legals done, finances next.

One thing that does help me is taking magnesium before bed, really does help improve the little sleep I have

TRT, HGH and Retatruride will give you your mojo back for sure lol

You’ll also be fighting off the ladies with a shitty stick

Seriously though, just start getting busy. Do something. Anything

Hit the gym, join a MMA class, go hunting for books, hit the dating apps, get out into nature, wild camping….
