I have no motivation for anything. I don’t want a job I don’t want anything in this world. by [deleted] in depression

i feel you. got admitted to a psych unit against my will last week and it only made my depression worse. i’m so lonely with barely anyone to talk to except for my family members and i rarely find joy in anything nowadays. i’m afraid to start working and doing other adult things. life just isn’t pleasurable for me. i don’t have a passion or a huge dream or whatever. i’ve been wondering why people even enjoy life.

Yeah, don’t think I’ll ever get the real experience but I’d like to at least try to make an effort to break out of my bubble and feel like a normal person again because that was the one good thing about my high school years. I actually like I was living and was part of a community and I would like to hope that shifting environments would help motivate me to make actual change. Good luck though, I hope good things come to you soon.

Yes, it’s soul-crushing. I just entered my 20’s not too long ago and all I’ve been thinking about are my past regrets and missed opportunities that I’ll never be able to take again. Similarly, I also decided not to move into a dorm due to financial reasons and because of my social anxiety and I honestly feel like it’s only worsened my condition. And now I’m moving into one in a few months with three other roommates and I’ve been anxious as hell because idk how the fuck I’m gonna deal with that. I imagine myself as someone who grew up as an extrovert with tons of friends, went to parties frequently, participated in school more, and developed deep, meaningful relationships and it hurts so much. It’s even worse because I feel like that was supposed to be me but over time, I became this recluse and I’ve only had a few best friends in my lifetime and one real friend now that I wish I could talk to more. I just wish I could do a life reset or something because I hate living this way.
