No Motivation

Maria April 12, 2018 3:19 am

Ok, I've been feeling super useless, and have no motivation to do anything. I always say I'm going to do something, lose weight, pick up some hobbies, etc. but I never do it. Everything is a boring cycle, and I repeat the same routines over, and over. I just sit and distract myself on the internet. I honestly feel really empty and lonely. Have you ever had this feeling and how did you overcome it?

    God, for a second I though I had wrote this, it describes me so well. So much regret, promises to improve and yet back at square one...

    It has become better tho, I fell like instead of doing a bunch of different goals, pick smaller goals and make them come true one at a time. Buy a pass at a gyum or whatever activity you want instead of doing it solo, because being with people helps and also when you pay for stuff you actually use it more since you don't want to waste your money. Find friends with different interests and try to see what it is they like, maybe you will like it too!

    I dunno, some ideas...

    But yeah the pot calling the kettle grey, or however that saying goes.

    I once had that feeling. And I think for me to overcome that was starting to work with what I really want and I got a boyfriend that also made me have many other routines.

    I think it’s different how we overcome things so I don’t now if that will work for you. But I think you should just be spontaneous and make some plans with someone because then you can not just bail them and not come

    I am definitely not good at giving advice and my English is not flawless, but I hope i will help you a bit ^^

    I have the same problem, but with my studies. I found out that waking up and actually leaving the house to go to the library is quite motivating. So yeah. First, you need to kick your own but and go outside because nobody else can motivate you more than yourself. Just do it ! O.O

    If you've been feeling like this for a long time and feel like you're detached from everything (like you're not really present in your own life or like you're in a movie, watching things happen around you), you should consider consulting a professional about depression. If it's just a slump you're in, the best thing you do is to push yourself to do something different. It doesn't have to be something big. Maybe one day go outside and take a walk. Maybe another day paint or draw something. Just changing your routine might motivate you to get up and do something.
