Ok, I already know theres multiple things wrong with me, but what would this fall under?;
Lately I have been having trouble- moving. Past couple nights I swear I will make it to bed on time, Ill be on the couch, tell my self im going to bed by say midnight, and then I just sit there. Doing nothing , but hearing the cluter and rambeling random thoughts /worrys in my head. I try to motivate myself and say get up! and I just cant seem to move. A lot of times ill be too cold/tired/in pain to move, like id rather sleep here on this couch than get up and go to bed. I need to break this habit, cus ill end up sittin there till 5-6am.. the clock just keeps tickin by. Then I regret it in the morning. I keep waking up late and missing the day, its become depressing. I gota snap out of this habit, but what is it? What category does this behaviour fall under?
I have trouble just "getting up"/moving in the morning too, but not as much as night. And usually I only have trouble in the morning cus im super tired from staying up all night doin nothing !

I already know I have an eating disorder, anxiety, and ocd, and a bit of adhd..
Does not being able to move/get up when your suppose to and instead sitting there doing nothing but letting your mind drown you in thoughts..fall under any of those categories, or is it something eles?

I need help It makes me feel as if I am insane...

hi vanessa22, i have anxiety and it does drain me of energy. So does depression. What you described sounds a bit like what I experience when I'm very depressed. I get achy, exhausted, dizzy..and experience some unpleasant mental symptoms like feelings of the world crumbling around me or feeling like everything is unfamiliar and scary. But it's difficult to say what the reason for your exhaustion is since these things affect us in different ways and to different degrees. Have you had any bloodwork done recently? It could be a mental issue or something else, like blood sugar, blood pressure, hormonal issues, lack of vitamins etc. Maybe you could see your family doctor, explain exactly how you feel and see if he offers to run some tests to find out whats wrong.
I hope you can figure it out soon. Take care

Reply to chocmouse - Sometimes I feel exhausted but its more of a.. Avoidance issue. Like I lack motivation to get up, and tell myself get up and play the moves in my head I gotta do "like get up, do this, brush teeth etc. go to bed" and I get overhwhlemed and start over thinking. And to avoid getting up I start day dreaming or thinking of random stuff, to keep me "busy" sitting down..

I personally don't think it would be helpful to label or categorize these things -it's how you feel, it's your experience. Sounds like getting to sleep so late is causing you distress --I would think about why you're avoiding going to bed earlier. Maybe if you distract yourself just before going to bed -reading, etc.- it will prevent you from being drowned in all of these thoughts and help you sleep.
Thanks for this!
