Understanding Depressive Symptoms - Apathy and Lack of Motivation

[@Crysta1986]

I'm not even motivated to watch Netflix. My mind is wayyyyyy too busy to focus on something for that long. I just sit there and stare at the wall or sleep.

[@aprestoargentino5695]

When I sleep I get terrible back pain and nightmares, so I guess I'm not allowed to have a break from this wretched existence.

[@thehealingnetwork5362]

It’s hard. I have tried everything to change things, but over more than 10 years of no change and nothing nice happening, my Soul is tired. Sometimes Life just blocks you and nothing works. And pls don’t tell me there is always a way. Sometimes there is no way. Sometimes life can go on for many many years where things are blocked for you no matter how hard you try, or hope or think positively. And sometimes due to prolong suffering, human spirit breaks. And apathy becomes your everyday feeling. Because once you have been deprived for so long, you are disconnected from Life. So often time apathy is a result of prolong suffering, and prolong stuck in a rut condition. And then your whole life force has been depleted.

[@aprestoargentino5695]

I feel the exact same way as you do. Even though I do have some proyects and aspirations, I struggle to move forward because I have no hope in the future and most of my life I never had a path. 30 years old and I have to START OVER. I'm just so sick of it. The only thing I found out to alliviate apathy is to put myself in unconfortable, risky situations. Last time I did a 50km walk in the desert. Physical exhaustion and pain are the closest to having a feeling, and the urgency of survival diminishes my anxiety. Maybe you need to do something like this periodically to reset yourself. I did it 3 months ago and I seriously need to do it again.

[@thehealingnetwork5362]

@@aprestoargentino5695 thanks for the idea. It does sound quite reasonable indeed. I will try 🙏 Hope you are feeling better.

[@thehealingnetwork5362]

@@aprestoargentino5695 I remember few times health issue crisis did give me that zest for life again, desire to push forward and a feeling that I did not appropriate life and the blessings I had. As if my sight was blurred and I couldn’t find the joy in the actual joyful things I was surrounded by. And then when you are on the edge, facing real physical and emotional struggle, you kind of realise how even small little things were / are worth it in life, and how precious they are. It’s just that I wanted certain things that didn’t happen and I felt stuck for very long time. But at the same time, I believe that everything happens as it should… so may be that is what I needed/ had to go through…

[@hashh2019]

Thank you- well said. Exactly this- loss after loss and rejection after rejection in all areas. Although i am grateful for what i have and now knowing what achievement in life gives- its not worth it (sometimes its good to be ignorant atleast one tries, but when you know whatever you do life is a loss overall, money and health goes away i do the required minimum- just dont feel joy or purpose except for praying).

[@hashh2019]

@@jennifera777 Aww Jennifer, just saw this. I hope things get better for you. I will pray for you- my confusion is low and i am more hopeful n joyful now. I switched to Islam after having been in Church for years- i found many answers that are complete instead of confusion i found in church answers ( like God doesn’t reject or leave but i found the meaning of trials, the meaning of his presence, our practical purpose in life). Finding one or two likeminded people that uplift you will help you. Meditating, nature, genuine community in the mosque, the 5 time prayers give so much life to me now. On top of that I get to keep Jesus as my beloved role model and God’s messenger. My intellect n heart couldn’t live with church brainwashing n i am happy n content now. Sorry if this sounds bad to you (im not betraying God or Christ, just found the right version)- but perhaps this may be the light you need.

I have been depressed for three months.. couldn't do much, lost my energy, the smallest chores seemed too exhausting, i felt pain but couldn't know why, cry everyday and feel like.. my life sucks. I'm just a loser who couldn't finish one goal out of 8 goals.. I wanted to get my energy back so hard but just couldn't get it back and had a really bad time. I used to just waste my day on my phone scrolling through youtube shorts, with the guilty feelings burning me inside, today I said to myself "this has to come to an end" so I searched on how to get energy back and I found your video, it was the best thing I did . I took notes and now I have all my energy back after three months of hell, tomorrow is a new day for me, and I just wanna tell you how greatfull I am to u and that u helped me a lot..

You can definitely experience these without having depression. I haven’t felt pleasure or motivation for years. I work 100% off of discipline. Thank god my brain has a decent frontal cortex. I just graduated medical school and felt nothing afterwards. No sense of reward or satisfaction. I drove home after class with a blank face and went about my day normally. It is not depression because I am not suicidal, don’t cry, and don’t self harm. Lots of people relate to this but just put on a smile and act excited so the people around them don’t get worried.

Thanks for this video. I was a Type A personality for most of my life... a big achiever. Started, grew and sold a multi-million dollar business and then seemed to quit living. I've tried to engage by coaching other business owners, and I've published three books after selling my business. I find it hard to follow through on my projects... particularly marketing and selling what I've created. My kids got married and my second grand child is on the way; but I find it challenging to find interest in any of parts of my life now. My wife is a gem, but I am not engaging with her either. I can't tell if this is depression or apathy. I will try to make sure I cover the ideas you listed. Nutrition, game/TV addiction, and alcohol before bedtime are three that are problems for me.

I ended up seeing a psychologist again, reducing my workload and cutting out a day or two (even though I initially felt shameful/embarrassed doing this, I had to consider what was best for my health. Can not fill from an empty cup). I also had to stop being so hard on myself and cut myself some slack. If I felt this way, there was a reason and I needed to heal. I started setting at least one enjoyable goal each day - baking, going for a walk in the sunshine etc. - and one other goal e.g. spending some time getting this piece of work done, think positively about my day and what I can potentially enjoy about it (e.g even though I don’t want to do this today, I will enjoy meeting with this person/listening to a podcast I like on the drive).

This is all well and good. But personally speaking. My apathy comes from complete alienation from society. Combined with the hyper inflation and upcoming food crisis. I feel no need or desire to participate in a dying society that didn't even want me in the first place. Thus the inevitable neilism kicks in. To what end do we acknowledge the futility of it all?

Lack of purpose. But how to find it?

[@DocSnipes]

Thank you so much for watching my video on Understanding Depression Symptoms - Apathy and Lack of Motivation. It means a lot that you took the time to engage with the content and share your feelings. Feeling a lack of purpose can be a challenging and difficult experience, but it's important to know that you're not alone in this journey. Many people go through periods of uncertainty and questioning their purpose. It's natural and part of the process of personal growth. Finding your purpose is a unique and introspective journey that can take time and self-reflection. I want to offer some guidance to help you explore and discover your sense of purpose: Self-Reflection: Take some time to reflect on your interests, passions, and what truly brings you joy and fulfillment. Consider what activities or goals make you feel alive and engaged. Identify Values: Think about your core values and what matters most to you. Aligning your actions and goals with your values can give a sense of purpose and fulfillment. Explore New Hobbies and Activities: Don't be afraid to try new things. Sometimes, purpose can emerge from exploring unfamiliar territories and discovering hidden talents. Helping Others: Engaging in acts of kindness and volunteering can provide a sense of purpose. Helping others often leads to a deeper connection with the world around us. Set Achievable Goals: Start by setting small, achievable goals. Each accomplishment, no matter how small, can give you a sense of direction and accomplishment. Seek Support: Don't hesitate to seek support from friends, family, or even a professional counselor or therapist. They can provide valuable insights and encouragement during your journey. Be Patient with Yourself: Remember that finding purpose is not an overnight process. Be patient and compassionate with yourself as you explore and discover what brings meaning to your life. Avoid Comparison: Avoid comparing your journey to others. Everyone's path is unique, and what brings fulfillment to one person may not be the same for another. Embrace Curiosity: Be open to trying new things and learning from different experiences. Curiosity can lead to unexpected opportunities and revelations. Celebrate your progress, no matter how small, and focus on the positive aspects of your life. Optimism and a positive mindset can make a significant difference. Remember, finding purpose is a personal journey, and it's okay to take the time you need to explore and discover what brings meaning to your life. You deserve to live a life with purpose and fulfillment.

I know exactly why I’m barely motivated to “mop the floors,” so to speak. Or any other cleanup in the house (eg hair everywhere). It’s because we have a large dog who messes it up again immediately. So the reward is very short-lived. Eventually I say, why bother? How does one deal with this?

[@DocSnipes]

Thank you for sharing that! It’s completely understandable why you’d feel discouraged about cleaning when it feels like your hard work gets undone so quickly. When the reward is so short-lived, it’s easy to fall into the “why bother?” mindset, and that can definitely contribute to feeling unmotivated. Have you found any strategies that help balance out the frustration or make the process feel more manageable? Sometimes small changes or breaking tasks into more bite-sized chunks can help shift the feeling of overwhelm. I’d love to hear your thoughts!

I know it has to do with porn warping my view of women and the world BUT is it the case that its maybe Depleting my "natural" motivation "power" and because of it I dont get that drive and ability to see intimacy and sex and women motivating enough at the moment? ( I used to years ago)

Your Creator loves you and wants an intimate relationship with you. He has also provided the solution to the one thing that keeps you from having it. "Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow." Isaiah 1:18 2 Corinthians 5:17-21 Romans 3:21-26 Romans 5:8-9 Jeremiah 33:3
