I haven’t been making any music lately. I haven’t written a new song in three months. It feels like a higher part of my mind is cut off and now i just watch TV all day. Anyone else lose motivation for things they love to do?
Yes, join the club! I just watch TV all day now. Even then it’s mostly music tv channels as my concentration is poor.
I understand…
My guitar and keyboard are covered in dust. My 6 string keeps giving me this dismissive look because I haven’t picked her up in ages.
You can try wellbutrin
I still pick up my guitar every now and then but it doesn’t help me like it used to.
I actually was just about to post something similar, until I saw this post. I literally want to do things, but don’t have the motivation to do it. This morning, I forced myself to go biking with my dad. I’ve been sleeping ever since. It’s easiest to sleep when you don’t have motivation to do things and experience no pleasure in them.
I have very little motivation, and I dont enjoy things so much.
I manage to watch some TV and I will go online, I do however manage to pace (walk) everyday.
I used to draw, not anymore.
I also dont play guitar as much - once in a while, ill pick it up and play for like 5 minutes at a time.
I had to force myself to take a shower this morning.
Is it working for you? It makes me an irritable witch.
I have very little motivation to do things.
Like @Wave I have to force myself to shower.
Motivation is hard for me too. I dont really like doing much. But i do it not for joy but because i want to accomplish certain things. I have this belief that as soon as i get where i want to be ill be happy. Not sure if that is really true i just know that it keeps me going and i cant complain about that or else id just slowly melt away.
Its working for motivation just not for weight loss. I gained ten lbs on it
Strange. It seems you would lose, being more active etc.
Some days on some days off. I have problem brushing my teeth. I also have poor concentration.
Yeah I have zero motivation. I just sit around all day watching TV and playing xbox. I don’t think I ever had too much motivation to begin with though
i used to be really motivated to draw or paint, now i dont have the motivation and if i force myself the outcome is terrible… now i just cook and play piano and watch youtube or look at other artists on instagram…
