I have very low motivation but I remembered to take the garbage out.
Hey that’s something.

I just started last week so I really can’t tell you how it is. Unemployment statistics are really low so that is a relative statistic (technically an absolute, but who uses it like that anyways) if you are familiar with past unemployment percentages. I live in Dallas, Texas
Oh okay sorry didn’t think you were in us. I always found the lower the unemployment rate the easier it was to get a job. I’m sure you will find one. I think Texas has a real good economy.
When i was on abilify and dexedrine i started a business which people interpreted as motivated behaviour. But i became delusional in regards to my clients so i stopped doing it. Ive been spiraling downwards ever since i lost the business. Now i struggle to take showers once or twice a week.

I think you would be able to program. Just keep practicing your focus and it should improve. Coding is difficult so it understandable to have trouble or some setbacks

My motivation to do daily tasks have been very good, considering how much my Sz has been on my way. I should be proud of myself more than I have gave to myself. Music making goes up n down, but I am not gonna give up.

I have no motivation to do anything. That includes not being able to watch tv or finish a video game. I bought Skyrim and have only played like 3 hours.

The worst part is watching my parents live productive, wholesome lives while I’m here just watching TV and perusing the internet all day. I live with them, so I see them go to work all day, then come home and be productive around the house. It’s frustrating for me

People with Sz tend to stay indoors a lot and are at high risk of a vitamin D deficiency. Low vitamin D causes low energy.

I have motivation to do social things outside my home - social contacts, volunteering, job, caring for my child, going for groceries, going out for a drink or a walk. It gives me a boost and there are often other people involved that I don’t want to let down. When I come home I crash though and don’t have much motivation or energy left for the basics - self-care, household chores, administration, cooking. I tend to crawl in bed with a laptop and music when at home. I also find it hard to have an overview of such things. Going out and having a drink with someone is simple. Cleaning a whole house is though: where do you start?
