Meaningless life help?

I'm only 26years old. But yet. I find that nothing matters to me. I have nothing to care about. I'm not saying that nothing matters or there is nothing to care about in life. Just that I have nothing that matters to me personally anymore. I have no interest in anything, no passions. I just don't have anything to care about. My life is extremely limited because of my physical health. So I have no job no purpose. I try and help my family in anyway I can but they act like they are doing me a favor by letting me help them. Sadly they aren't entirely wrong. Why I was young I used to try and make meaningless things matter like tv show or books. And it kinda worked, it helped but now I can't even do that anymore. I don't know what to do. Sorry for rambling but dose anyone else have this problem? If so what did you do? Is there anything to do? Does anyone have any advice?

I was just looking up on your condition. Has your Doctor done any tests or given medications to help. It may be He will be able to set you along a treatment pathway.

I am registered disabled and my Wife is my Registered Carer, it works well and even with my Short term memory disorder I try and keep myself going and I can still do various things in house and garden, I also have various hobbies I can take part in.

I also have a rare form of Arthritis and that has restricted movement for over thirty years.

Sorry your problem is making you negative in outlook, however it is up to the Patient to consider ways to keep themselves active. Most of us do manage and enjoy various activities that helps us keep busy and divert our thoughts to any activity we do enjoy.

I always find activities can be undertaken if we consider making some positive changes so we can do things with others, many who have worse health concerns than me.

I have various projects I do in the garden and I also visit historic buildings in Spring through till Autumn so I am kept busy

Thank you for replying. I'm always trying New medications unfortunately with no success. I have constant migraines and tension headaches. I keep trying to do things anything but the pain always stops me. I've given up on friends because there is only so many times you can say no to doing things before they just quit asking. At first they feel bad you can't do this or.that but eventually life is just too short to deal with someone like me. So they stop being my friend and I can't blame them. No matter how hard I try I'm just not capable of enough. I'm not able to have a garden but maybe I'll get a potted plant. Maybe that will help a little. Again thank you.

It is important you try some form of activity to keep your brain active and alert.

You mention pain, there are medications available for your condition. Have you talked to a Gyno to work out ways to help no-one should be in pain and should be able to in someway control it.

If you look up your signpost condition you will find various medications, I also understand there are sites on Healthunlocked that may give you ideas to help you

i can sort of relate Rin9 ... i have those feelings too sometimes, no passions, not having anything to care about ... like there is no purpose. i too have issues with headaches. you feel bad because you think you should have something to care about, some passion or purpose ... but you stop and look around, and there isn't anything. you aren't alone in this, and you are definitely in the right place
