Hallo YouTube!Hello YouTube!

Da er det veldig lenge siden jeg har lagt ut noen video her.It's been a very long time since I posted any videos here.

Snart et år siden så jeg.It's almost a year since I did.

Så ja, tenkte bare å lage en liten video og sjekke inn.So yeah, I just thought I'd make a little video and check in.

Jeg lever ennå.I'm still alive.

Det gjør jeg, eh, og kanskje bare forklare littI am, um, and maybe I'll just explain a little

hvorfor ikke jeg har lagt ut noen videoer og så videre da.why I haven't posted any videos and so on.

Eh, egentlig det siste året så har det ikke skjedd stort.Um, actually, over the past year not much has happened.

Det har ikke det.Not really.

Jeg har helt ærlig egentlig isolert meg veldig mye, fra online, sosiale medier og så videre.Honestly, I've isolated myself a lot, from online, social media and so on.

Jeg er her fortsatt, men har på en måte trukket meg en del ut og vekk.I'm still here, but I've kind of withdrawn quite a bit and gone away.

Og grunnen til det da, kan jo være ærlig om det,And the reason for that, to be honest about it,

det er at jeg sliter og har sliti en del med mørke tanker og så vonde følelser.is that I'm struggling, and have struggled quite a bit, with dark thoughts and painful feelings.

Jeg hadde planer om å legge ut en video i går.I had planned to post a video yesterday.

Tiende oktober så var det verdensdagen for psykisk helse, men var opptatt da.On the tenth of October, it was World Mental Health Day, but I was busy.

Hadde en kul helg i Trondheim med Sweatteamet.I had a fun weekend in Trondheim with the Sweat team.

Så tenkte bare å lage en videoen her i dagSo I just thought I'd make this video today

og bare fortelle at jeg ikke har vært helt i humør til å legge ut YouTube videoer.and just tell you that I haven't really been in the mood to post YouTube videos.

Og, ja, så sånn har det vært.And yeah, that's how it's been.

Men jeg vet jo det at, eller det er veldig godt for meg da,But I do know that, or rather, it's very good for me

å bare si det som det er,to just say it like it is,

og så prøve å jobbe videre, og så prøve å være litt mer aktiv.and then try to keep working, and then try to be a bit more active.

Jeg har på en måte, egentlig hele livet vært en ganske ensom ulv.I've sort of been a pretty lonely wolf my whole life, really.

På en måte alltid vært ganske utenfor, og jeg tror ikke det er så bra for meg.Sort of always pretty much an outsider, and I don't think that's very good for me.

Så det er ikke så lett for folk å se for at utad og sånn,So it's not so easy for people to see that outwardly and such.

når jeg er på trening og sånn, så er jeg ganske hyggelig, eh, jovial, utadvendt.When I'm at the gym and such, I'm quite nice, uh, jovial, outgoing.

Prater med mennesker.I chat with people.

Men når jeg er alene så sliter jeg medBut when I'm alone, I struggle with

Ja. Ja, jeg må, ja, bare si det som det er, så.Yes. Yes, I have to, yes, just say it like it is.

Men som jeg skulle si da.But as I was going to say.

Det er ikke så lett for folk å vite,It's not so easy for people to know,

for at når jeg er uten folk og sånn, så er jeg hyggelig og blid og sånn.because when I'm without people and such, I'm nice and cheerful and so on.

Og så, så folk tror kanskje ikke det da.And so people maybe don't think that.

Men sliter.But I struggle.

Og på en måte treningen, bodybuilding, det er på en måte min glede i hverdagen og livet. Så.And sort of the training, the bodybuilding, is sort of my joy in everyday life and in life.

Det holder meg på en måte i live.It sort of keeps me alive.

Så ja, men så må tenke fremover, så er på en måte ikke bra for helsen for meg å drive å isolere meg og sånn som jeg.So yes, but then I have to think ahead, and it's sort of not good for my health to keep isolating myself like I do.

Så jeg må prøve å prate litt mer med folk, være litt mer utad.So I have to try to talk a bit more with people, to be a bit more outgoing.

Og når jeg er utad og er med mennesker så har jeg det ganske fint.And when I'm outgoing and with people, I'm doing quite well.

Men som sagt så har jeg mye vonde tanker når jeg er alene.But as I said, I have a lot of painful thoughts when I'm alone.

Så. Prøve å få i gang litt kanskje treningsvideoer etter hvert.So I'm trying to get some workout videos going, maybe, eventually.

Ja, men utenom oppi her og i hjertet så går treningen og fysikken veldig bra.Yes, but apart from up here and in the heart, my training and physique are going really well.

Det går veldig bra treningsmessig.Things are going really well training-wise.

Men, prøver å få litt tankene bedre på stell også.But I'm trying to get my thoughts in order a bit too.

Så jeg lover ingenting.So I'm not promising anything.

Men prøver å, ja, være litt mer utad da.But I'm trying to, yeah, be a bit more outgoing.

Ikke låse meg så mye inn og sånn.Not lock myself away so much and so on.

Da kommer som sagt mye vonde tanker. Så.Then, as I said, a lot of painful thoughts come.

Men jeg skylder ikke på noen.But I don't blame anyone.

Det er ikke lett å,It's not easy to,

og jeg har på en måte aldri, har ikke snakket med noen eller vært hos noen psykolog eller noe som helst.and I've kind of never talked to anyone or been to see a psychologist or anything at all.

Har bare dratt på gymme, og da føler jeg meg bedre.I've just gone to the gym, and then I feel better.

Trening er den beste terapien.Training is the best therapy.

Bodybuilding, det elsker jeg.Bodybuilding, I love that.

Bodybuilding reddet livet mitt og, ja.Bodybuilding saved my life too, yeah.

Det er på en måte min, ja, passion da.It's kind of my, yeah, passion.

Så prøver å få delt litt det på kanalen fremover.So I'm trying to share a bit of that on the channel going forward.

Men jeg lover ingenting som sagt.But I'm not promising anything, as I said.

Men treningen og sånn går veldig bra.But the training and so on is going really well.

Så får vi håpe at mental også blir bedre etter hvert.So let's hope my mental health also gets better eventually.

Så det var egentlig bare det.So that was really just it.
