I broke my foot about a month ago and i’ve been in the house. Now that i am no longer on crutches and have the boot i thought i’d be more active and going out. Yet here i am unmotivated to do anything at all. i feel like i just have no purpose. overdramatic? maybe but it’s how i feel at this given moment.

I felt the same last fall and most of winter. I had a knee replacement then 6 wk later had to do it again as the implant got out of correct alignment, so 2 months of opioid pain meds, not being able to drive for 3 mo, bored, annoyed, all played with my depression and anxiety. Once I was able to do stuff, I didnt want to. Now, its better. Weather warmer, more sunshine, Im starting to feel real almost. Hang in there. It is going to get better.

I know for me, the less I do the morr tired I get and unmotivated.

Maybe if you just try to do just a little at a time to start, you will get your motivation back.
