I feel like I don’t want to care about anything. I have no motivation to do anything. I just don’t want to do anything- I feel so weak. I need to study but I’m so worn out emotionally. I’m just so tired.
Nothing feels valuable. I just feel lethargic. I feel like I need to feel alive and motivated but I have no energy.
What is this feeling? Is this a negative symptom or just really bad depression?
Depression and schizophrenia both can cause negative symptoms. Depression negative symptoms respond to meds but sz negative symptoms rarely respond to meds. Nothing worked for my negative symptoms while avoiding positive symptoms. I get lower negative symptoms on lower AP dose or when unmedicated but I also get positive symptoms which are worse than negative symptoms.
