It’s possible the drugs are causing the issues. Give them up for a while and see how you feel. Drugs are mind and mood altering. In my younger days I too had a drug problem,I quit at 23. My story is long, the short version is I never went back to the drugs. I didn’t go to rehab, I just quit. In 47 now and I remember the day I quit like it was yesterday. Give it up and see if it helps..

Hi it seems to me you could be suffering from depression so I think you need to seek medical help.

Many people self medicate with illegal drugs and alcohol but while it seems to help in the short term in the long term it just makes things worse. x

I've been trying to get myself out of the same mood for years and I can do it for a while but the nights I'm not hanging out with friends or partying I am laying in bed feeling the same way you are right now. I can't tell you any sure fire way to get out of it but talking does help me so feel free to message me if you want.

Hi, Cina. I truly understand what you say, as I remember being ovewhelmed with those feelings of not knowing why I was so depressed, always feeling down. I think that sometimes we end up getting accustomed to not feeling right, having negative and self-hurting thoughts repeated in our heads (like a routine), I mean, yes, many people like you and like me, concentrate and only see what's wrong in our lives and lose hope. Well, try to stop all those thoughts from taking control of your life, and taking away all the joy you could be having. I'm sure there are a lot of people who care about you, even though you don't notice them (and if you want to talk to someone, I'm willing to hear you out). Also, I think that a good advice is to be careful and wise when choosing who you will open your thoughts and feelings to, there can be great advisers out there, but also people who maybe do not understand what you're going through, so better to talk to someone who can help instead of someone who will make things worse! Cheer up, my friend! (Yeah, I'm being shameless ha ha) Hope that I did not bore you. Best wishes, Cris.

Hello Cina101!

I think you nailed it when you mentioned psychiatric help. That’s an appropriate place to start! When I isolate, it always turns out bad. It’s just something I cannot let myself do. I don’t have the time or the luxury of being sick. Ending your life is not the answer. You’re needed here and have a purpose. It might be a simple purpose, like mine, but a purpose nonetheless! The only way I have found to beat a lack of motivation, is to make myself do the very things I don’t want to do and then it gets easier from there. You have to fight and take action to feel better. I’m wishing you peace!

So glad you are posting. We are here for you. Please know there is hope. Keep reaching out. Have you considered counseling? Christian counseling has helped me. It gave me a safe place to vent, cry, and voice my true feelings without fear of rejection, and my counselor gave me wise, practical, Godly advice and strategies to deal with my feelings and life. Again, please know there is hope. Praying for you today.
