I find it way easier to be sad and lonely than to be joyful and happy. When I was younger, everything about life fascinated me but now that I've seen the realness of life and made bad decisions, my past doesn't seem to stop haunting me. So I sit in comfort with my depression because it's far easier to be miserable than it is to be inspired.
You've said what I was going to say. It is easier to wallow in misery because it takes no effort. The challenge is getting yourself out of it and making a change. You need to get over the past and move on or just continue to rot away in the hole you dug for yourself.
Well said :)
The difficult thing is to put effort in you have to believe you'll be rewarded, and when you feel depressed it's hard sometimes to imagine that light at the end of the tunnel to use as motivation.
thanks for the reply. lately I've been trying my best to stand up, do some exercise and made it my goal to get back in shape. So I'm slowly crawling up from the hole I so miserably dug for myself :)
Well, your not going to like it at first, it will take some getting used to. Soon enough, you'll start to enjoy life again, and you'll want to try. What seems to be hard right now will seem like nothing in comparison, you just have to put the effort in now.
You're using this depression in the wrong way. We use depression as a motivation to better ourselves.
One of my friend is just like you, or maybe i believe it is you. His state is completely like this, being dumped by a girl after a very long relationship, career is full problematic right now, want to do nothing else than just being depressed over every aspect of life, even depressed over a cigarette. Whenever speaks, it is full of depressing nonsense. Having problem with everything, even with drinking water.
We have suggested a few things, if this is not you, then read book about self motivation, personality development, leadership qualities(makes no sense here but that can help plant some seeds of confidence), visit a psychiatrist, make friends, enjoy life rather i will say explore life, if you are a guy make a GF or vice-versa.
Best thing to start with is go for a roller coster ride, it will surely help..
And if you are the one who i think you are, for confirmation just reply here with my flat number, i'll get my answer. If not then no worries.
Thank you for taking the time to write. I'm not the friend you believe me to be, but I can totally relate to his situation. Even though mine has nothing to do with relationships [in a way, it does, but it's not the main focus], I just have lost that major willingness to live but I think it's getting better because I'm actually doing something about it now.
I'm going to the psychologist once a week. My issue is mostly drug related. I'm an addict.
But I definitely agree about the roller coaster. Man, I love the euphoria.
