I have no motivation. Any ideas? I’m starting school in August. Only thing I can think is asking my doctor for ADHD medication.
I take 4 grams of sarcosine and 1 gram of sodium benzoate. Since I increased Vraylar from 4.5 mg to 6 mg, I have less motivation. But I have less positives.
A long time ago, I was told I was treatment resistant. Clozaril gave me NMS.
I’m sort of depressed right now.
I need to read, program, and study mathematics. I just started an increased dose of Cymbalta 3 days ago. Is it too early to tell? Is it possible energy drinks are increasing my negative symptoms?
I’m on Vraylar, and after 3 mos there’s not much diff in motivation. House still a disaster area. Diet still poor. With the positives, still paranoid, still have some voices, etc. But overall better. I’d agree that negatives are hard to treat.
if i just upped my dose 3 days ago i’d give it more time i was told 4-6 weeks for full effects on antidepressants. coffee helps me get some energy, but not too much coffee then the jitters.
Never thought about it that way … but seriously!! I got called in Supervisors office today and she was like “ok what’s going on? Let’s go over your caseload” and I got all these voices in my head and I’m trying to keep my thoughts from racing, stay focused, trying not fidget,etc; and my homework !!! Oh my, my my!! Biology is not fun. It takes me about 30 minutes to zone IN.
And I am by no means judging anybody for their choice of Meds. I kinda thought I was gonna join the “fun club” and get to experience the awesomeness that everyone was talking about eventually but guess I will never cross over…
I was suffering recently from a big lack of motivation, I been putting little bits of added effort everyday and it’s been helping me get stuff done. Maybe that can help you, adding just a little bit of tasks every week and see where that can get you good luck!
loss of motivation IS associated usually with unhappy life we all live, loss of having goal …
you ought to forget you ill and ask your self whats your goals and what you achieved so far
what you wanna achieve …
practice a kind of sport i recommend to u running at morning and walking if you cant… it raise endorphin in brain and boost over all happiness …
eat chocalate i wont say again it boost happiness too and it may be life saving
have a dream
forget you ill
practise sports
What motivates me is making my bed within 5 minutes after waking up. My day is less than 5 minutes old and I’ve already accomplished something !! Hopefully that accomplishment will lead to another accomplishment and another accomplishment and so on.
And even if my day sucks I get to sleep in a well-made bed.
If you are treatment resistant in every area. Good job! You don’t need meds! Play some sports get fit and forget everything your doctor said you couldn’t do. And if you can’t keep trying and trying. A better appearance is going to help = MORE motivation. I’ve worked 11hour shifts in shipping and receiving that I could careless if someone was trying to annoy me.
But never give up! Who knows one day you will find that miracle pill where everything goes away. And hey, what if zchizophrenia never leaves youll will grow strong watch. You will realize how stupid this is. If your like me you won’t mind it anymore. Your subconscious mind won’t recognize it as a threat anymore…If life decided to throw you some lemons throw them back. Tell them there was a misunderstanding. And you got the wrong fruit! (but seek help if you need it ok I know)
good luck!
