Okay...this is a very random topic, but anyway...Im not a very sporty person, but sometimes i get these sudden urges to go for really long walks. Its normally when im feeling down and confused. I just start walking and dont stop for ages. How wierd is that!? :rolleyes: Sometimes i even walk several miles! :eek: I really scare myself sometimes...

I do so myself, when I am worried/bored/down... Generally when I am not feeling too well mentally.
It annoys people to see me wander around. As I will sometimes stay and walking around home. From room to room, or back and forth in the hallway. But it calms me down, or just let me get the energy out, so I can't stand still.
And you should just be happy that you don't get the bad energy out in various other ways, which are nowhere near healthy mentally or physically
Walking gives you the chance to think over what you're feeling and gives you time to come to decisions.
It is just your way of dealig with issues. Honestly, I wouldn't worry about it at all.
Glad I'm not the only one!
right now.
