Advice needed after falling
Hey all, I am in some need of guidance/advice/experience. I have been bouldering for a few years now, and I got to a solid level where I feel I can send challenging projects and enjoy the sport. Fast forward to 2 months ago, i had my first injury: i tripped my ankle with some soft tissue damage. In the past the same ankle had a partially torn ligament, and I was told I can expect a long recovery but nothing major.
Since the accident I can already walk with a minor limp and the physio said as long as I dont jump from the top bouldering is fine. Today is my 2nd day in the gym since the accident and climbing feels terrible: I am constantly stressing on falling, I feel as if my ankle is constantly drifting out, and can not support my weight. Part of this is surely psychological, yet I don't know what to do. Bouldering was my fun getaway from stress and work 2-3 times a week and I am worried it might be ruined for me.
Any advice on what should I do? Leave the gym for a few months and "start again" once I feel ready? Keep pushing? Look for another hobby, and have climbing ad a least frequent hobby?
Thanks in advance.
