I'm dooing the whole eat good, exersise, get regualar sleep, abstain from alcohol thing. and i im just worn the hell out, I just want to go to bed, stay there and hide my head under a pillow. but if I do that for verry long i'll be back in the hosptal in short time I seem to need other people to push me to do anything right now. Im like a log on a hill , Im quite happy to do nothing, but once I get pushed hard enough to moov I'll keep going for while
Yeah, apathy sucks. I know exactly what you mean. You gotta find what lights your fire. Some people go nuts over star wars....try to find something more constructive or appealing to women. Thats if you are into getting laid.
Always worked for me. It used to be the only reason I would get out of bed, the only reason I would go to work, or school, or church, or do anything at all. Then I got in the swing of doing all of those things and made a routine out of it, even without weed, which was rare. But yeah, it worked.
iver never touched weed, and most likly never will. not that I have anything against it, everyone I know and thier pet dog smokes up at least once in a while. its just that the smell of the smoke drives me nuts.
Just find something you're interested in that will motivate you. If you're not doing anything you like doing, then there really is no reason to get out of bed.
yeah man, just have a lie in an wait for people to call you. as for topnotchstoner - yeh weed is pretty much my life at the moment coz i'm goin thru hard times. no job, no education, gotta pull it all together but at the mo it's a case of get up, smoke-eat-smoke-eat-smoke-eat-smoke-eat-sleep.
You might be depressed. Talk to a psychiatrist and tell them just what you told us in your post; that you don't want to get out of bed, and you feel down. He will most likely give you some antidepressant meds. I take Zoloft, and it works. I feel motivated now like no other time in my life. Mention Zoloft. That and pot work for me.
Yeah man. Been there. Right now I'm trying to find a job, so I haven't smoked in about a month. I have an interview tomorrow, so maybe I'll get the job and be able to toke again.
Drama and music keep me going a fair bit. When I was still in school I hated it so much that the only way to keep myself going was music and drama. I dropped out when I got to the point where I said that managing my band could practically be a full time job with school as the bit on the side. I dropped out and found it was true. When things get slow I just swing into management duties - booking gigs, sending out demos, balancing books etc. But none of that applies to you unless you are a drop-out in a band about to release your debut album on your own indie label. So yeah - more universally, find a goal and pursue it. Also build up a support network around you. That's why I initially got into drama - I didn't have any friends at school and I needed a catalyst to make new ones. I joined a couple of drama groups and hey presto I've made some friends who I think in a good few years time I will still be working with. Also get some rest - if you get yourself into a really intense routine its no wonder you feel worn out. Take some rest from it but be really strict. Say you get 2 days off from it and that's that. If 2 days isn't enough then you stick to 2 days anyway and learn - next time you get completely burnt out give yourself 3 days and stick to that. Hope this helps Sebbi
I used to be on meds but I stopped taking them even though I should still be on them. I'm the type of person that doesn't like a pill controlling my emotions and would rather go through hell by myself and deal with it then mask it with a pill. Of course I might go back on meds because my philosophy isn't working that well and I really should be on meds.
no shit eh....iv'e been in and out of the hopsital for the last month for it. see this thread http://www.hipforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=178748
anemia causes sevear shortness of breath. as it deceases your hemogloben counts, and thus your lowers your oxygen suply. Iv'e been running 2 miles 3x a week so I doubt its that
I have anemia and I run. I thought it was depression too. I would get a blood test and try taking these vitamins called blood builders they have iron and all the b vitamins to allow the iron to be absorbed, give it a month and even if they upset your stomach just keep taking them.
I don't have any motivations for going on besides not wanting to end existence but I'm not too down about it. For me the thing is to just relax and not be in a crisis mode; fiddle on the computer, watch some tv/movies, make and eat food, give me dog some attention and then the day's over.
