It’s just so hard to get anything done. I have soooo many things that need to be done, yet I still sit here, doing nothing.

I should plan a vacation, but I have no desire to do anything.

I really need these pills I take. Can’t live without them, but it’s hard to really live.

I’m just whining...

This is a major reason why I have resisted even considering getting back on any kind of medication, even though at times I think perhaps I might benefit from it. There are always things I have to do. And I know, from past experience, that if I were on med's I just wouldn't have the energy. Sometimes I feel as though I barely have enough as it is...

I’m currently dealing with the inability to get stuff done. I do the basics clean house, cook and take care of myself with hygiene daily. But .....

My husband and I should be putting new flooring in the bathrooms , he physically isn’t feeling well and I’m mentally dealing with ptsd and can’t focus on much of anything.

I'm wishy washy lately. My mind goes from great to not so great and fear takes over and I can't do anything. I'm doing ok today. Making it just fine on 4 hours of sleep.

I consider myself to be doing well if I can do a load of laundry, clean the kitchen, go out for lunch and shopping and cook dinner.

I have been feeling so blah.

No energy. No interest. Paralyzed, again.

Can't blame it all on meds, though the zombie ones make it harder. Meds add stability and ups. They suck energy, but thats theoretically undone by the good the AD does in motivating you. Truth from a long term sufferee is there is no answer. Meds or no meds. Ive been both. Meds and no meds. Both periods of taking and not taking have landed me in the funny farm. Im on meds atm. There's days where anything but breathing is an effort. Yesterday I spent all day in bed, did nothing but fed my dog. Ate some her food. Then i had a shower. Thats huge for me. Showers are like running marathons.

Today I did a little outside. In 10 minute bouts. Go out, start, walk back in and crash for an hour. Go out, 15 minutes, repeat. Its 5pm and I've forgotten to even eat today.

Tomorrow I have plans. But I'm single now, so those plans are fluid. I guess that makes me both lucky and one of the lonliest people on the planet. Everything's a compromise.

Sheesh. I've just depesssred myself!

Meh.

At the end of the day, if you're still breathing, then remember to oat yourself on the back. Your day could have been worse. From me to all of you, I'm glad you're all still breathing.

The current med regimen has served me well so far. The only problem is figuring out when to take my other meds. Some I can take together, some I have to take together, others need to be spaced out. Some supplements also have to be spaced apart (calcium and magnesium, for example).

Still, I have days when I feel like dried-up tree sap with no motivation.
