Why is reality so tiring? I have never felt so demotivated in my life but I do not have depression. Is it the lithium? I feel that I have been fighting the good fight for 15 years and I am so tired now. My son is 13 and I feel that I have been asleep for most of it. But he is a great kid and we have a good relationship so why do I look at him sometimes and shake my head in amazement and ask myself "who raised you, u beautiful person?" Who am I?
I am in the process of writing a book and it is like pulling teeth yet I know it is life or death to get this story on paper. It will ultimately be my salvation. Think I'm having a mid-life mental health crisis. I'm only 35!

I have often wondered that myself. I think why is this so hard this thing called life? Then I think about that song I never promised you a rose garden and then say shut up brain and then laugh.
I just wanted to say I don't think you are alone in your thinking. Jbug

Wow, I was having feelings like these tonight. Just...no fire, no passion. Bleah. Maybe it is lithium. And my kids' childhood is rushing right by while I'm numb and detached. Not to mention my adulthood. Double bleah!
 My kids are doing well too, thankfully. Keep going with the book, that's great! |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
