Spending my days doing nothing

[Quantum_Marten0302]

Ive started to more and more frequently spend well over half of the day either sleeping or just lying in bed trying to sleep, looking through the room or thinking about stuff. Does anyone else do this?

 

[GodzillasBiggestFan]

yes i have been doing the same

 

[fr1dgeDelv3r]

yeah it happens to me. however, the question is; do you have anything better you wish to do instead?

i do wish a lot of things happened differently which would have allowed me to do certain stuff but right now theres nothing realistic that i want to do

Actually feel the same with my mental state it's hard to do anything productive. I can't even concentrate much on TV shoes or video games anymore, which used to be something that I could really engage in.

That's how I know my depression is just getting worse. Even exercising hasn't helped that much, like walking or bike riding. My anxiety and depression is just so bad right now that even those distractions don't help or provide dopamine anymore. I guess my brain is completely broken now.

It's basically what depression on the severe end is. A psychologist explained to me that the reason SSRIs can make people suicidal, is that when the depression is this severe you are too depressed and not motivated enough to kill yourself. You can only lay in bed and rot because your brain is in such a state.. but once the pills start to kick in, that's when you have some motivation to do something about the problem.

You aren't alone. What to do about it is the challenge. I'm losing purpose

 

[Hollowman]

Yeah I do it too, a lot.

I do this all the time, it can really wear a person down to just not do anything all day but at least I have stuff to do on my computer so staying in bed all day isn't a total waste
