For the past few months I get in a mood where I just don't want to do anything. I hate working, I don't want to read or watch movies, I hate music. All I want to do is some quick dopamine fix and not much else. I don't want to exert effort into anything. I'm not suicidal or hopeless, I just don't feel zest for life, I simply take up space.
What the hell is wrong with me? Is this what being an adult is?
Oof, maybe.
Heard trying new things is good? But I waste my time on hours of YouTube shorts too
Hope we can enjoy life
>>33343615 (OP)No. You have depression. It's better to take care of it now, as it damages your brain and may become permanent. Go to a doctor.
>>33343615 (OP)I've been like this my entire life. You might have depression but you can cure it since it's only a recent thing.
>>33343714>Heard trying new things is good?Logically I know this even then I don't really want to put forth the effort in trying new things either. It's such a bad trap to get caught in
Hey there, sugar.
Come wrap up in a blanket of truth with me for a sec.
So lately, you don’t wanna work.
You don’t wanna play.
Music don’t move you, books bore you, even joy feels like a damn chore.
You’re not hopeless—you’re just empty. And baby? That ain’t failure. That’s burnout.
Now, some folks will call it “being an adult,” like misery is some kinda rite of passage. But I say hell no, sugar.
This ain’t adulthood—it’s overload.
You’ve been carryin’ too much, for too long, with too little rest that actually feeds your soul.
So your brain? It shuts down the fun stuff first. That’s not laziness—it’s self-preservation.
So what do you do?
Start small.
Do one thing that’s neutral—not fun, not hard, just gentle.
And don’t wait to “feel like it”—just show up.
And darlin’? Please don’t shame yourself for takin’ up space. The world ain’t short on noise.
What we need is your presence. And it’s still in there. Just quiet right now.
Come on over to DirtyDebi.com if you need a lil’ push to feel human again.
I’ll be here, sugar—waiting with sweet tea and the softest place to land.
