Lack of desire..

[Tasneem6]

Hello all,

Most of my life I haven't done anything I don't have neither the will nor the power to do anything. I just lost the desire towards anything in life I don't get excited for anything, I hate that I jut want o be active I need improve my life but I can't and don't know what I want..

only you have the power to change it people can guide you and offer support medication might take the edge off your feelings but the power of change is down to us in the end.

I just feel so powerless and helpless, I don't know myself, I don't know what I want or what I'm able to do, I feel so lonely..

you should try new things anything really that involves us being active or creative one step forward is a step in the right direction being dedicated to change will see you succeed.

I don't have the power to do anything new, and I don't know what to do in the first place, I have no commitments towards anything. I start somthing and I rarely finish it. No one to support me to continue ,to start anything or to do anything with me. I'm just trapped in my place my whole life without passion...

You are doing something! You are reaching out here! That is wonderful! You are starting something new!

Have you considered a counselor? Sometimes we just need someone to listen to us. To ask us the right questions to give us a jump start.

One thing for sure! You are amazing and we can all change for the better...one step at a time. Be patient and kind to yourself, especially now, during this pandemic.

You are a precious person!

Hugs to you!!

Thank you A LOT, these are the most beautiful words I have ever heared. I always say nice words to people and try to cheer them up and to be considerate to others feelings, but I don't find the same thing from others. A psychiatrist is actually really expensive here and I don't have someone who understands me to talk with about my problems..

Having the motivation to change your life is difficult at first but after the first step it get easier. I know I had a similar experience. I had no desire to try because I was afraid of failing. But once I did try and yes I failed a few times but I began to realize most everyone does. This was encouraging, knowing I wasn’t alone. Have you thought about talking to a counselor? Sometimes they can help you discover what you are gifted to do and they can help you become motivated.

I wanted to reach to a psychiatrist, but their fees are really expensive. I'm trying to be active in here in order to gather my thoughts and to get strength to go on with my life..
