Some days are just a wash out - maybe watch something funny on tv or listen to a podcast or play online?

You came here .

That shows that at least you are reaching out. That's a good thing.

Maybe a warm shower will lift your spirits a bit ?

so true, there is nothing wrong with sleeping, depressed or sick. The problem for me, is the less I can do, the less I do... so doing nothing, would make me feel like nothing...

I'm all about distractioins at times like this - answer other peoples post, focus on a movie or documentry. There are lots of things you can do from bed, or sedentary that does not include "not being around" that is your "tired" brain, your mental illness creating those thoughts. Knowing that let's me point out, of course I'm tired, and don't want to do THIS anymore....

So, for 10 minutes do something else! Maybe 30 minutes.... Eat something, showers either suck or feel good, if a hot shower is a good thing for you, it's a free buzz! Endorphins as you close your eyes to the hot water. LOL There are times, not only do I not want to shower, I have my oldest most torn up clothes on! Whatever makes you comfortable.

Of course it sucks to sleep, lonely, with no idea or motivation. You are not alone, start a few more threads, help someone on here! Send some hugs to friends - helping others, giving a hug, being a friend - Works, helps and worth a try! LOL it's in our budget too : )

((((BIG HUG)))) Wishing you peace and comfort, maybe a laugh or two to help relieve some stuff too!

I know exactly how you feel.

(((((Hugs)))))

Netflix has made it possible to binge on TV series that everyone talks about...I hate it when i watch one frickin episode and then end up sinking time into all the others, but it IS a good distraction, more favorable than the other problematic escapes that i might stray toward. Word puzzles have been great distractors for me lately, too, and make me feel more alert, mentally sharp--but sometimes of course we simply don't have the cognitive resources to deal with that...that's when we turn back to movies, etc. I like the tactile refreshers as well (e.g. showers) as they really seem to help at times. i guess it's a matter of trying to listen to bodymind soul to see what's most receptive/itching/whatever.

In any case, hope you feel better soon...

Thanks. I havee netflix...maybe i will sink into some mindless tv...
