I want to word this carefully to make it clear that I am not depressed or anything
All I have is a desire to do more
Essentially, how do you guys manage to actually do things and not just fall into contentedness from meandering around the internet all day
I have multiple hobbies, some old that I still enjoy, some old that I really want to strive and pursuit, but, I never feel like doing any of them
This isn't me forcing myself to do something I don't want to do and feeling repulsion, it is the lack of desire despite the fact I know Id enjoy it
Again, no, Im not trying to do things Im only telling myself I want to do, they are things I enjoy, but I find myself just doomscrolling or jerking off or fucking around in chatrooms or threads all day rather than doing something

Every now and then I have a 1-2 week stretch of time where I am totally honed in on doing things, watching stuff, writing, drawing, studying language, etc. But then it falls off. Not because anything happened, but it just does, and all at once too

I guess I just need to form habits? Or something? Because every time I start doing hobbies again I go "oh this is so much better"
But, that sort of baseline or not really putting effort of thought into actions, but not receiving negative consequences / dopamine responses is so addicting
It's like trying to start a fire without any kindling and you don't mind the rain either way

Thanks for reading my word salad, probably way too long

I only have one thing that works for this its set times especially early morning for creatives At set time i do whatever i've been thinking about most for that week or i do nothing just sit and relax no music just be bored and rest. Either i rest or i think up fun things to do or i just do those things.

Physical activity could help, I've been doing that alot lately and it helps to focus. Also prayer to GOD helps.

JUST DO IT.

Do you have a job? It's pretty normal not to want to do much on days off from work... If you don't have a job, you'll get bored of your entire life being online after a few years of doing it and get a job ... hopefully. I mean I was mostly NEET for 3 years after graduating and towards the end of it I was so bored of being NEET I would've taken any job I could get. I remember feeling euphoric even on my first shift after being unemployed for over a year and I'm forever grateful for the company I work for now. If I read this 2 years ago I'd just think of the wagie memes and laugh but now I really mean it because being a NEET wasting away in your room for years gets kinda shitty!

I'm just assuming by doing things you mean working because other than work I still mostly spend time in doors other than a rare date (which is easier with a job).

Stop watching porn and cooming to escape the cycle you've created for yourself, and start shifting your lifestyle to a healthier one. To achieve your goals in life, you must endure hardships; the good news is that the more you overcome, the easier it becomes, and the better you feel.
