Avolition I know it's been posted can't find it

I don’t do my hobbies anymore. I want to make things again. I have no motivation. I miss everything. Any ideas to help?

Starting is the hardest part. Once you get going it will flow.

I suffer greatly from avolition. It’s my #1 complaint. I don’t think there’s a solution.

I find that my avolition is bad when I find that I feel rubbish in myself.

For me it’s about finding ways to like myself again.

I tell myself it’s written all in my DNA my beauty.

It just isn’t all being expressed at this point.

Some of it is silenced.

Etc.

Try a little project, like get out your yarn and just do a square for fun instead of thinking you have to do a whole blanket. Maybe if there’s less pressure on it you’ll be more likely to get going.

I’ve been wanting to crochet for a while. Is it a side effect of one of my meds? I need to ask my pdoc

It could be, it could be also that you’ve been through a lot lately. It’s possible that you are depressed.

I have avoliton very bad. I don’t know what to do about it. I tell my doctor every time and she doesn’t say anything about it or tell me how I can overcome it. It makes me very upset

My ADD medication helps with that and holding my job. I do not have side effects toward psychosis, I don’t think.
