@@Wife_Mother_Failure things will get better. I know you’ve heard this spiel before but I hope you realize it’s true. Whether you find comfort in religion, working to better yourself, reaching out. Or anything else. You will be ok. Im sure this won’t mean much to you but I hope you know how much you are loved. ❤ take care
Im sorry :(... I"ll pray for you, sending all the love and bless, i hope all your pain you are feeling now, may turn in happiness ❤ You are loved and precious, and you can always talk here if you feel opening yourself!
I needed this right now. Thank you. I've definitely fallen into the fixed mindset. After experiencing so many failures, making the same mistakes over and over, and struggling to find a job, I just seemed to dig myself into a depressive hole. Because of that, I just feel like a total failure that didn't accomplish anything this past year, even though in reality, I lost over 60 pounds through exercise, finished a draft of a script and submitted it to contests, and caught up on a few movies I'd been meaning and wanting to see. Time to think differently.
You’ll get into the fixed mindset if you’re unhappy or frustrated and feel like giving up on something and you should not give up to be social and this happened to me and I don’t arrange hanging out with someone myself and only every two weeks I hang out with someone
I swear to God some time I feel like you're living with me. I feel like you're talking about me. Putting the same situation that I experience. I don't need to ask for help you all ways get the point I wanna say:big thanks to this channel you're a life saver
I woke up 35 minutes ago and still can’t seem to get out of bed even though I have to pee. A friend messaged me a week ago asking how I was doing and I still haven’t managed to respond to her even though she’s one of my besties. And I haven’t enjoyed a single waking moment since November. That was a long, indirect way of saying, as always, thank you for the video.
Hey. Stay strong stranger. We are all in this together so don't put yourself down 😊 you can overcome this. We all believe in you no matter how much time it takes 💪
Im the same i sleep for over 10 hours sometimes and i cant get up & if i do i still am trying not to fall asleep throughout the day bc its so boring. Im so behind at school course that i chose to shut up my annoying parents. I dont go to bed until 5-6am. I wish this would all end. Just want to fake my death and move away somewhere alone
I clicked this due to the fact that i’ve lost a lot of motivation so far, I got this notification while writing some *fanfiction* and realized that I slightly related to some of these. But after watching this I felt a little motivated and eventually got to writing, so truly I think this helped me❤
Psilocybin saved my life. I was addicted to heroin for 15 years and after Psilocybin treatment I will be 3 years clean in September. I have zero cravings. This is something that truly needs to be more broadly used in addiction treatment.
Psychedelics definitely have potential to deal with mental health issues such as anxiety and depression, I would like to give them a try but haven't found any legit grower to get it.
A lot of people have testified about this and I really want to give it a shot. I put so much on my plate and it definitely affects my stress and anxiety levels
The Trips I've been having have really helped me a lot,I finally feel in control of my emotions and my future and things that used to be mundane to me now seem incredible and full of nuance on top of that I'm way less driven by my ego and I have alot more empathy as well
The lack of motivation has been a thing that's hit me REALLY strong in recent days, and I was wondering why. A friend of mine suggested it might've been depression, which I started thinking about and brought up to my girlfriend. We had a long conversation about that, and she's strongly suspecting that I have it And now with this video coming up, and me relating to basically everything about it? ...yeah, maybe I do I will definitely bring this up next time I see my therapist
Idk if I have one of these but I’ve been really unmotivated recently. I loved doing art and I still love doing it now but i feel like I don’t have enough time for it because I’m busy with a lot of stuff for example Homework and School. I used to write all my art plans in a paper which until rn i can’t able to finish even though I wrote it like 5 months ago. I also felt unmotivated to edit my art and post something on my channel...This is what I observed as of rn. Thanks Psych2Go for sharing this❤
I kept hearing all my life that I wasn't needed, and that I wasn't good enough. This video does not talk about the influence of others, but it is a determinant factor in this. All that criticism was what killed my will to learn and to try things. Even though I had ia very high level of curiosity in my youth. My parents started the breaking but Internet gave the killing blow : with social media sites, your work and creations are immediately compared to the best in THE WORLD. So it has become really easy for people to tell you that you suck. Granted, I am very sensitive to insults. But without this bad environment I would never have become so depressed. On an individual scale, I was following all this advice until the meanness of others eventually broke me. So this isn't always one's own fault for having a closed mindset. Far from it.
Same. I rarely get complimented, I'm the butt of 95% of jokes, and I'm treated like an idiot 90% of the time. I never understood why, though. I know I'm extremely helpful to others and I AM pretty dang smart, but I guess I'm just ugly or something. It's like people just look at me and go "yup, he's a dumb guy."
I dunno If I'm feeling blue or just overthinking it, nowadays I can't find the words on how I feel. When I'm sad I often convince myself that I'm okay cause I don't know how to deal with it but I guess it became too much of a habit and now I lied so much to myself that I don't know what's true or not about me. At leats your videos help me to put words on my feelings so I'm glad to know this channel^^
It's okay to be feel that way i can relate you. It's okay to put your feelings into words because sometimes it feels good. Hold nothing in your hurt it is more painful. Express anything you feel in any form either by writing singing or drawing anything you are good at it helps:)❤️
This hits harder than Truck-kun. I've always felt weak after making failures over and over again, but I've come to terms with it. I can always learn and improve (even if it takes ages). It's worth the grind. I've started feeling better after making little accomplishments, like leveling up in a video game lol. It's better than being upset about not being a movie star. What REALLY bothers me is how other people don't take me seriously. I know it has a LOT to do with my physical appearance, but that's not my problem (well, to an extent). Even so, I am starting to like myself. Big W.
Can u give me some advice? I have been failing even tho I have a very analytical mind. I m mean I know a lot of problems but can't do shit becoz of what I got or either things that I personally can't have resources. Now I m at an important point in life. Everyone expects me to do something but it's just me who knows that I might go into depression in coming months
@@saurabhjarodia335 I wish I had professional advice, but honestly I don't think I'm the one to give it. A therapist would probably be helpful (if they're good, anyway). I'm still going through stuff. I thought it was over but one of my managers at work started treating me like dust so... yeah. Other than that, I'd say give yourself praise for every achievement you make. Not in an arrogant way, but pat yourself on the back even if you get a small victory. It helps a LOT.
i've felt like this for a long while, and it definitely effects alot of my life as well. reaching out in regards to this seems almost pointless because i think i would get a very general answer
Hi Psych2Go, I’m not sure if you take suggestions, but if possible, could you please provide a video discussing strategies to regulate emotion? I realise you have discussed emotion, suppression, emotional intelligence etc. in the past, though providing actual strategies to regulate (intense emotion) would be incredibly valuable to many of us. Thank you! Love your work as always. Xx
Whenever i feel the slightest lack of motivation the first thing i do is to put up the Vergil's battle theme at full volume to get my motivation back again, works pretty much everytime!
I had all of these around this time last year, I have no idea how I got out of it, all I can say is - nothing lasts forever - and things will get better if you take the time and proper steps to heal yourself. We're all human and we all have times like this - it doesn't make you more or less of anything - and I, unfortunately, had to learn that the hard way. I felt like I was losing time with how many hours I spent in that lethargic state - although time is of the essence... said time doesn't matter if you aren't taking time for your mental health. I'm still battling with this sometimes so idk what else to say lol. Always take your mental health seriously - and only take advice from people who know what they're talking about.
Yess nothing lasts forever you have to keep going....and going there is always a light at the end of a tunnel. I'm glad you got out of whatever you were going through its a process of healing it will take time and episodes of coming back again but at the you will be glad you did not have up and you made it through it all:)
One thing I've learned when talking about your problems is to find someone you can trust to talk about them... Except for your parents, they'll find ways to manipulate you into doing their bidding
That's why I never talk to my parent about my problems. When I said something, the way they replied, make me feel it's my fault, everything ended up become my faults.
I'm pretty sure I'm not under the pressure of depression, but because of these videos I'm trying to find the threat of such a mindset and start working early to combat the possible issues
When I loose motivation I fall back on discipline. If it needs to get done or I know I want to get it done I’ll get it done and feel motivated to continue working once I make good progress.
I have clear directions on where to go to improve, the work is on the relative easy side, but time-consuming, all in all, I can clearly state that my motivation, or what I like to call it, my "will to be productive", is dying, or feels already dead, when in school, I can do the work straightforwardly because it feels like a job, so I do it, but once I get home, any homework or any unfinished work feels like an impassable task, so I just shrug it off and relax and have a "lazy day", and these days are getting more and more, and my lack of motivation is just making itself more and more apparent, I was a A+ student before I lost the drive to work and be academic, and only recently have I realized that for my entire life outside of being a kid who doesn't need to think about their future, I showed a lack to want to improve, learn, or obtain a skill to better my life, learn to ride a bike so I can go to school on my own, nope, no will to put in the work and my sister needs to go with me so that's out, I want to learn a certain subject for my future and I already own a book on the subject, but can't find the will to read it despite my love for reading, and only recently I found my 'love' for reading has only grown quiet and I can't even remember the last time I picked up a book and enjoyed it... I was on the road for a scholarship and my dream for college or heck, even a university, but now, it has only become a fear of not being "enough" anymore for that dream... I honestly can't think of the direct reason for my "lack of a will to be productive", I mean, I know depression has some hand in it, but I have no idea what the exact reason is, lost the love to work? Because you have nothing besides your work? Because your not even sure if the subject you want to learn is the subject for you? Have a wonderful life for whoever you are that decided to read this, thank you for your time, and remember, you don't have to be productive all your life, but it's good to do be productive every once in a while.
Almost two years ago something happened and then I was completely broken down and shattered.I mean it was like all alone in a dark trench..I had no clue about the day,date and time.Neither I had appetite for food nor any interest in socialization. It was as if I was just breathing.I would sit with my laptop and couldn't even type a page in an hour or more.Would just sit and gaze at the screen thinking of the old things.My productivity and efficiency had tremendously decreased, almost to zero. Then came depression, anxiety, nervousness,unrest,lack of sleep etc etc..My condition started getting worst. With no one around me I started searching for help online.I came across those activities which would help me to cope up.I joined violin and guitar classes as hobby.Then started swimming classes.I started listening to motivational videos and also subscribed self help e-books.I would listen to them and then grasp the message and moral it conveyed.Later I became such an avid reader that whenever I used to visit any one's house or a cafe shop I would borrow books if they had of my genera.In my leisure time I would read in my workplace too.By then I had also started writing in Your quote platform.Wrote about 200+ poems and short quotes within a span of a few months.Following this I also started writing blogs.Though an armature but I liked my blogs.I mean I could pen down my thoughts, feelings and emotions. In between this when I started having panic attacks I went myself to the Psychiatric Centre for help.Luckily it's the best Psychiatric Centre of India and to add to the toping I am lucky enough to be treated by a best Assistant Professor.No sooner did I started for counselling I joined Gym and rifle shooting as a pastime.After rigorous effort and sweating I am able to overcome all the adversaties in life. Though it was very difficult at first but it is said that well begun is half done. Today when I look back I see pain,hurt, sufferings,heartache, treachery etc...etc.. but when I look at myself in the mirror I see positivity, optimistic,empathetic,well built muscular hunk to whom people flock to. I am glad that I am able to make it.People who know me pat my shoulder and proudly say that you are a Braveheart and get inspired from my success.
I've never been so early for one of these videos, especially about something I've been wondering about myself for over a month now. The only thing keeping me out of the complete blue is playing music and certain very few friends that I don't get to be with as much as I'd like to. Diminishing accomplishments: I received a price for the best grade in my year and I wasn't making much of a deal about it because despite being successful at school, it seemed to me that I wasn't being successful at being happy. My New Year resolution is to get help.
Life is not a race... It's a process, you shouldn't have to blow through you're feelings, but try to understand them, the better we get to know our true selves, the better we get to grasp of the reality of who we really are, don't let nobody tell you that you can't because you can... It maybe rough to get out of bed sometimes, but trust me I know... But doesn't mean you're worthless or lazy... It just means that you're seeing a different side of you that you didn't know existed, when you wake up, I want you to tell yourself that you're important and you can do anything that you put your mind to and ignore all the negative thoughts and words because they are not worthy of your time and energy, love yourself because you deserve to!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰😘😘🤗🤗🤗
2:10 even if I accomplished something no one noticed it can be super demotivating that no one is going to appreciate I have achieved something they said it's small go for bigger than that ... I can feel the rage in me boiling what's worst someone did the same thing as me but they acknowledge that and gave them a reward is their nothing more infuriating than that .... Felt like I more like a rag doll in front of everyone no matter what I do what I do is completely nothing...
It can be incredibly disheartening to work hard on something, only to have it go unnoticed or be dismissed as insignificant. However, it's important to remember that our self-worth and value as individuals should not be determined by external validation or recognition. Instead, focus on the internal sense of accomplishment and pride that comes from setting and achieving your own goals. Think of it this way, the journey to achieve a goal is like planting a seed, The seed itself may be small, but it has the potential to grow into a mighty tree that provides shade, beauty and fruit. The work you put into it is what makes it meaningful and valuable, not only to yourself but to others. Additionally, remember that everyone's path is different, and others' accomplishments should not be a source of comparison or envy. What may come easily to one person may be a monumental challenge for another. Lastly, consider seeking out opportunities for growth and development, both in terms of your skills and in terms of the types of projects you undertake. As you continue to set and achieve goals, you will gain the confidence and recognition that comes from consistently delivering results. It's understandable that feelings of rage and disappointment may arise when we perceive that our efforts have gone unrecognized, particularly in comparison to others. However, it's important to acknowledge and process these emotions, rather than allowing them to simmer and fester. One way to do this might be to reflect on the specific reasons why this situation is particularly frustrating or anger-inducing for you. Once you have a clearer understanding of the underlying emotions, you can then work on reframing them in a more constructive way. Additionally, it can be helpful to remind yourself that everyone has their own unique strengths and weaknesses, and that your own abilities and contributions are just as valuable and important as anyone else's. Try to focus on the positive aspects of your own efforts and accomplishments, and take time to celebrate your own small wins. Also, don't forget to build a positive relationship with yourself, your own feelings, and acknowledge them without judgment. Recognize when you're feeling demotivated and understand that it's normal and it's ok, that feeling should not prevent you from moving forward, it's a passing feeling. Lastly, don't let the lack of recognition or validation stop you from pursuing your passions and achieving your goals. Remember that true satisfaction and fulfillment come from within, and that your own personal sense of accomplishment is far more valuable than any external validation or reward. So keep pushing forward and let your passions and ambition guide you on your journey to success. 🙂
4 out of 5 of these things automatically check the box for me, and this has been an on and off process for me since the start of January... sometimes, it feels like I don't know what's best for me in terms of rest or self care, and unwittingly, I tried to push away my close girlfriend this past weekend because of how I felt mentally and physically. She knows I have depression, but the way it looks and feels to me is different from how it affects her. Sometimes, I don't understand why having depression makes living so difficult 😪😖
It’s the reason that I only had two people say happy birthday. It’s the reason that everything feels fake. It’s the reason how I can see myself and I don’t have anything lovable. It’s the reason that my last friend is pulling away. It’s the reason that I’m only 13
Ah yes I do indeed like being perfectly called out by the literal start of a video. That bed/window layout is a perfect copy of where my bed is, and they're hugging a pillow. Which I also do.
I can definitely attest to the fact that when I do many things in life I find almost every thing bland. If I'm playing video games especially, I wanna play the game at its hardest difficulty which funny enough I was thinking to myself the other day how that is extreme behavior - all or nothing. I don't believe depression works exactly how a psychologist would describe it and that those of us with severe depression require drugs to function but depression definitely can result in extreme behavior and that's most likely due to feeling numb a lot of time and extreme behavior can make you feel good. Something I know I struggle deeply with in life is that everything is temporary, absolutely nothing is permanent. Whether it's eating, sleeping, playing a game, listening to music, watching a movie, talking to someone, doing work and getting paid for it. Everything is temporary. 🙄🤕 Thanks for the work you do Psych2Go and giving people a platform to connect with.🥺😁
Hey Psych2Go team, I dont have a lack of motivation but i dont know how to use my motivation since i slowly recoverd from my depression over the last year and still learn how to socialize again. Could you make a a video about finding a way to use your motivation when u dont know how?
a pill isnt going to change your problems. change your toothpaste, learn a stretching routine, make your bed it doesnt have to be perfect. get a chair and sit infront of the window with the sun in your face. learn what nutrition the body needs(water/fat soluble vitamins, amino acids, protein, fiber).
"I have studiously tried to avoid ever using the word 'madness' to describe my condition. Now and again, the word slips out, but I hate it. 'Madness' is too glamorous a term to convey what happens to most people who are losing their minds. That word is too exciting, too literary, too interesting in its connotations, to convey the boredom, the slowness, the dreariness, the dampness of depression.” - Elizabeth Wurtzel (1967-2020) author of "Prozac Nation: Young and Depressed In America"
Psychedelic's definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression , I would like to try them again but it's just so hard to source out here.
I've only realized now that I have no motivation for anything, lack of interest and self esteem. That I think I'm a failure and I'm losing interest in the job that I wanted to do so badly. I can't think of a time when I was motivated and knew I had it in me for school. Now... Well I feel like a wreck, a failure. Even though I have a lot of friends that are always there for me, lovely parents who support me and the best boyfriend I could have asked for. I don't understand why I feel this way and it feels like there is no reason for it. But feeling this way was so normal for me that I thought it was part of my character. I thought I'm just extremely lazy. Now I think I should check in with a doctor.
Yeah that’s why It peeves me off when people say “Oh you’ve got everything going for you, why are you depressed?” But it’s got nothing to do with what’s happening around me, it’s more profound than that. You can be rich and live the life but have depression.
Lately I just feeling like laying on my bed all day, not talking to anyone, ignoring texts, not going outside. And its been a month since I last eat a proper meals everyday....I always have the *****dal thought with me everytime I made some mistakes or when anything doesn't go well. I think its bcuz I lack of interaction with people in real life too.. my roommates isn't here since last month too, and I am not ibteractive with other people too. Haha I tend to show that I am okay, I am happy and nothing happens. No one actually know how I feel. Haha
Whenever I feel like going for a walk my mum questions me and it kills the mood a bit and I just go back to my room, I do understand that she has a list of mental health issues and that herself. When I want to do something outside the home as simple as a walk in the local woodland she always says no and it makes me feel isolated, I know I have autism but I am aware of my surroundings most of the time and it makes me stick the phone all day but I do try something productive but I don't get much feeling from it.
my videos are shit but I used to love editing them, now it's more of a chore for some reason, plus I notice that they hardly get any attention (not that internet fame was ever my goal, but still). it used to be my one outlet along playing the bass, but I find I'm enjoying both less and less. damn, everything in this video applies to me.
Self-distancing- yes, I do that all the time. I can't understand why friends say "It's more fun when you're here".That just makes no sense to me. When I write it out, I can see what they are saying, but I just can't belive it. My family is happy that I live over a thousand miles away. And yet this group of people, who barely know me, think I am wonderful. I think they are deluded. I'm severely depressed and yet they think I'm fun? Weird.
They might find something positive in you that makes them happy. Sometimes people are exhausting find time for yourself and make time to do things that you love doing:)❤️
i was only 15 seconds in and i felt like she just narrated my whole life story. jokes aside, i think this is the most accurate thing that has ever existed. i used to be so productive, but then one day, i burnt out, and i still havent recovered. i was never a lazy person. like i want to get things done, and i love doing things, but i cant. i thought it was me growing up that i needed like 12 hrs of sleep to function and couldnt get out of bed despite not even being tired. i hate that i feel like having depression is embarrassing, and makes me less worthy, or worse than others. its funny how only yt comments section know about my mental health. i have issues with being open with other humans, but at least i got the comments section as my diary. u guys dont realise how accurate this is for me, my motivation has gone down do 0 recently, and ive always been a productive freak. like in the morning, all i want to do is get up, but i just cant get myself to move, i hate it. even the stuff i have always loved and cherished like, art and crocheting are stuff that i dont do anymore, the same things i would kill to have time to do before. this is crazy how accurate it is. like before, if i had even a spare 30 mins, i would get out my paints, before all i did during the holidays, was my hobbies. this christmas holiday however, i did none of it, i stopped reading and drawing and all those things. i dont even feel love for them anymore, which u dont understand how sad that makes me. now when i paint, i feel like its a chore and that most of the time im forcing it, reading feels like studying, when before i would get scolded for how much i read. i thought it was growing up which stopped my love for video games and things, but i realised thats probably not true. Thanks to this video, i think im going to get back into them, but knowing me, its not going to happen. i feel like my whole day i just think about the things i dont do, and i over obsess about self improvement and changing who i am, but i feel like i actually should be proud of myself. despite not having motivation, i still did well academically, yet i did miss lots of days off school for just feeling so bad and being so tired. everyone ik thought i was over reacting, and so did i, but looking back, i was going through a lot. my inner child is in so much pain, i feel so bad, it needs so much help. i was so incredibly mature for my age it was terrifying, my mum would say she gave birth to a grandma. i was never a child, 7 yr old me felt like an adult. that was probably from severe childhood trauma but thats irrelevant. OMG, i just realised i did this. i feel a bit ashamed and grossed out that i do this, but i dont like hanging out with ppl, like outside of skl, its not becuase i dont like them, i never saw it as pushing them away, i just thought i didnt want to go. wow, i hate myself. i am so sorry for writing so much, this is very irrelevant and people are dying. i dont know why im acting like i am dying, like i have food and water. im sorry for being over dramatic, but this felt good, and i feel healed. i use comments as my journal. it just feels so good. i love u.
now, im going to focus on fixing my depression, instead of trying to be productive. whats crazy, is ive been in this motivational rut for a whole yr. FOR A WHOLE FLIPPING YR I COULDNT LIVE
Well, I don't know if this confirmation is going to help me or not, but I can pretty safely say I've been struggling with depression for the past few years or so after this.
Dysthymia is really fun especially when one of your 'friends' tells you "as long as you don't traumatize others" while seeking help and just one reason not to do it. It feels wrong that the people at the 'fun-time' hotline care more about you than your actual 'friends'. And of course, they keep calling you a friend, but when you question that believe, they lie to you.
honestly, idk, ive been so unmotivated i cant even get outta bed, honestly i dont relate to any of these things, yet ive been so depressed i cant even get out of bed, and im contantly having negative thoughts..
I found something i truly enjoyed recently i was a show i enjoyed ot for some time but it was very short and that was the last time i was happy in the past few months i had fun but it was basically just from exercise one of the last things i enjoy other then finding something to help escape reality I am experiencing 4/5 of these
I cannot seem to figure out why i'm constantly tired, my body feels heavy, I have no motivations, I dread hanging out with others, and I can't sleep without melatonin. Is this depression or am I burnt out emotionally?
It is so hard for me rn, I have my exams in a week and I have absolutely no resources nor motivation to prepare for them and study... It has been like this for months, I do not know what to do... I do consult with psychologist, but nothing helps, I feel exhausted each day with constant stress...
I can say in my life I definitely dread my mother presence however in my case I’m am mentally handicapped she’s all I got instead of therapy I can’t go to her with my problems if she doesn’t know she’s part of the problem
Thing is....getting out of that state isn't following a specific process Uk....just like how people are different, so are their experiences, and so is the way to get out of some certain state from person to person So....as such, there isn't a fixed process But if you do feel like you are in this state, don't hesitate to reach out for help I hope you have a lovely day/night, and even if you don't right now, i promise it'll be better soon Just wait :)
Uhm I've asked someone an egoistic request like this before, but I must get the most information in life, so... May I ask you guys to make a video on how to "communicate with timid, shy people" or such? I really need that kind of information, since the first 2 timidly shy people I've met til' now don't want to say anything.
Yup. All symptoms present. Like, really. All of them. I loose interest in things I like to do (play videogames), Have a fixed mindset, Don't want to take part in family gatherings (even just going to the store), Work problems (technically school problems, ~6h of sleep, long lessons, bad grades, etc.), which plays into over stimulation. So yeah, not good.
idk who will read this but i just want to vent a little.so ive been feeling unmotivated for a realy long time...idk if its a phase of a teenager or bc im just a dumbo who cant do anything right.im in a exam week rn and i feel like studying but im just unmotivated. i just go like "im already dumb and not good at allll the subjects what will even change if i try to study it ? nothing can change in one night!" and than i just go sleeping. today i got the result of one of my exams which i got a good score on the other time but this time i got 30 points lower than it and increased my unmotivation. my parents trust me in getting high grades,i dont want to let them down...i dont want to see their disapointed faces.my parents are in an other country rn for bussines reasons and im left with my sister and grandma (my dads mom whom i hate)my sister always tells me to study and not to push myself.my grandma always asks how my exams went and than imeadietly after adds that that i ofcourse got lower than the other students... i always say that im not the others and that im quiet avarage .i always tell my twin to deal with my grandmas quetions bc i dont like to feel like a disapointmant with my failing grades.my parents told me thay would bring me aloooooooot of chocolate from where they are but i dont feel like i deserve it...i try to make the chocolate their going to bring my motivation bc i love it sooo much but it doesnt work! thinking about a bright future doesnt make it any better...ive got a history exam tommorow and i dont feel like i could pass it...i just cant.each night i cry bc im so dumb but in the day when people tell me im dumb and stupid i dont care and just laugh it off.i wouldnt care for my grades if it werent for my parents.the only thing that makes me happy is english.i realy love english and think of studying it but my parents dont approve they think i should become a engeneer bc i have drawing skill but the problem is i dont think i have that talent anymore i dont feel happy when i draw anymore,i dont have that light in me anymore...i just feel so numb.i wish i couldv been the child,the student,the person,the sister my parents want me to be but i cant . i dont even know what i want and what my isues are.i have a pretty good life and family ive got spoiled my whole life with love so why am i like this? i am a 14 year old teenage girl who lives in Turkey
You can't make everyone happy even your parents. Girl let me tell you grades might be important for you to please everyone but at the end there will be a void inside you that will still feel unhappy and unsatisfied. Even you make everyone disappointed for one time it's okay to do that you are not loosing your life. be brave to listen to what you really want from your life it's your life nobody else's you have to choose it will gonna hurt sometime but nothing is greater than feeling really happy in what you do.:)❤️

I just lost 2 friends to depression this past year.. currently battling mine , pray for me 😞
I’ll pray for you ❤ but, even more so, I’ll root for you!
hey, if u need to talk, talk please ;)
Im sorry :(... I"ll pray for you, sending all the love and bless, i hope all your pain you are feeling now, may turn in happiness ❤ You are loved and precious, and you can always talk here if you feel opening yourself!
i’m so so sorry :( May Allah grant you a speedy recovery Ameen ❤
Condolence, sending prayers. ❤️
I needed this right now. Thank you. I've definitely fallen into the fixed mindset. After experiencing so many failures, making the same mistakes over and over, and struggling to find a job, I just seemed to dig myself into a depressive hole. Because of that, I just feel like a total failure that didn't accomplish anything this past year, even though in reality, I lost over 60 pounds through exercise, finished a draft of a script and submitted it to contests, and caught up on a few movies I'd been meaning and wanting to see. Time to think differently.
You are blessed and you are loved! Surround yourself with the right people!
You’ll get into the fixed mindset if you’re unhappy or frustrated and feel like giving up on something and you should not give up to be social and this happened to me and I don’t arrange hanging out with someone myself and only every two weeks I hang out with someone
I swear to God some time I feel like you're living with me. I feel like you're talking about me. Putting the same situation that I experience. I don't need to ask for help you all ways get the point I wanna say:big thanks to this channel you're a life saver
actually every help you can get is worth it, my friend
I woke up 35 minutes ago and still can’t seem to get out of bed even though I have to pee.
A friend messaged me a week ago asking how I was doing and I still haven’t managed to respond to her even though she’s one of my besties.
And I haven’t enjoyed a single waking moment since November.
That was a long, indirect way of saying, as always, thank you for the video.
Hey. Stay strong stranger. We are all in this together so don't put yourself down 😊 you can overcome this. We all believe in you no matter how much time it takes 💪
@@shoto539 thanks so much. I finally got up to pee so I feel a little better lol. I hope you're doing as well as can be expected.
@@commie_maybe no need to thank me ^_^ that's great bro! :) I'm trying my best too 😊
Im the same i sleep for over 10 hours sometimes and i cant get up & if i do i still am trying not to fall asleep throughout the day bc its so boring. Im so behind at school course that i chose to shut up my annoying parents. I dont go to bed until 5-6am. I wish this would all end. Just want to fake my death and move away somewhere alone

thanks
@@CRABWIZRD watching the video isn't lazy but ok
I clicked this due to the fact that i’ve lost a lot of motivation so far,
I got this notification while writing some *fanfiction* and realized that I slightly related to some of these. But after watching this I felt a little motivated and eventually got to writing, so truly I think this helped me❤
glad it helped you! :D
Well this seems like a call from the universe… thank you psych2go for making these accessible well produced videos! ❤
Hope they do their job!
Psilocybin saved my life. I was addicted to heroin for 15 years and after Psilocybin treatment I will be 3 years clean in September. I have zero cravings. This is something that truly needs to be more broadly used in addiction treatment.
Psychedelics definitely have potential to deal with mental health issues such as anxiety and depression, I would like to give them a try but haven't found any legit grower to get it.
A lot of people have testified about this and I really want to give it a shot. I put so much on my plate and it definitely affects my stress and anxiety levels
@michealharris3221Is he on instagram?
The Trips I've been having have really helped me a lot,I finally feel in control of my emotions and my future and things that used to be mundane to me now seem incredible and full of nuance on top of that I'm way less driven by my ego and I have alot more empathy as well
@michealharris3221Does dr.sporess ship?
The lack of motivation has been a thing that's hit me REALLY strong in recent days, and I was wondering why. A friend of mine suggested it might've been depression, which I started thinking about and brought up to my girlfriend. We had a long conversation about that, and she's strongly suspecting that I have it
And now with this video coming up, and me relating to basically everything about it? ...yeah, maybe I do
I will definitely bring this up next time I see my therapist
Idk if I have one of these but I’ve been really unmotivated recently. I loved doing art and I still love doing it now but i feel like I don’t have enough time for it because I’m busy with a lot of stuff for example Homework and School. I used to write all my art plans in a paper which until rn i can’t able to finish even though I wrote it like 5 months ago. I also felt unmotivated to edit my art and post something on my channel...This is what I observed as of rn. Thanks Psych2Go for sharing this❤
I kept hearing all my life that I wasn't needed, and that I wasn't good enough. This video does not talk about the influence of others, but it is a determinant factor in this.
All that criticism was what killed my will to learn and to try things. Even though I had ia very high level of curiosity in my youth. My parents started the breaking but Internet gave the killing blow : with social media sites, your work and creations are immediately compared to the best in THE WORLD. So it has become really easy for people to tell you that you suck.
Granted, I am very sensitive to insults. But without this bad environment I would never have become so depressed. On an individual scale, I was following all this advice until the meanness of others eventually broke me. So this isn't always one's own fault for having a closed mindset. Far from it.
I can relate to that..
Im here for you guys, if you wanna vent or let it out.
Its okay, it won’t bother anyone don’t worry. ^^
Same. I rarely get complimented, I'm the butt of 95% of jokes, and I'm treated like an idiot 90% of the time. I never understood why, though. I know I'm extremely helpful to others and I AM pretty dang smart, but I guess I'm just ugly or something. It's like people just look at me and go "yup, he's a dumb guy."
Well, in my case, my motivation to do anything was killed during midterms when I got bad grades for the first time.
@Fallen I don't think you are ugly. You should not judge yourself to the way that others think for you, I am also being treated like a dumb cow,
I dunno If I'm feeling blue or just overthinking it, nowadays I can't find the words on how I feel. When I'm sad I often convince myself that I'm okay cause I don't know how to deal with it but I guess it became too much of a habit and now I lied so much to myself that I don't know what's true or not about me.
At leats your videos help me to put words on my feelings so I'm glad to know this channel^^
It's okay to be feel that way i can relate you. It's okay to put your feelings into words because sometimes it feels good. Hold nothing in your hurt it is more painful. Express anything you feel in any form either by writing singing or drawing anything you are good at it helps:)❤️
This hits harder than Truck-kun. I've always felt weak after making failures over and over again, but I've come to terms with it. I can always learn and improve (even if it takes ages). It's worth the grind. I've started feeling better after making little accomplishments, like leveling up in a video game lol. It's better than being upset about not being a movie star.
What REALLY bothers me is how other people don't take me seriously. I know it has a LOT to do with my physical appearance, but that's not my problem (well, to an extent). Even so, I am starting to like myself. Big W.
Can u give me some advice? I have been failing even tho I have a very analytical mind. I m mean I know a lot of problems but can't do shit becoz of what I got or either things that I personally can't have resources. Now I m at an important point in life. Everyone expects me to do something but it's just me who knows that I might go into depression in coming months
@@saurabhjarodia335 I wish I had professional advice, but honestly I don't think I'm the one to give it. A therapist would probably be helpful (if they're good, anyway). I'm still going through stuff. I thought it was over but one of my managers at work started treating me like dust so... yeah.
Other than that, I'd say give yourself praise for every achievement you make. Not in an arrogant way, but pat yourself on the back even if you get a small victory. It helps a LOT.
Small accomplishment makes big success one like never stop improving let people think what they think that does not matter at all.
i've felt like this for a long while, and it definitely effects alot of my life as well. reaching out in regards to this seems almost pointless because i think i would get a very general answer
I'm trying to fix my mindset now. I'm always thinking I cant do something. When really I know I can. Thanks again for posting.😀
Hi Psych2Go,
I’m not sure if you take suggestions, but if possible, could you please provide a video discussing strategies to regulate emotion?
I realise you have discussed emotion, suppression, emotional intelligence etc. in the past, though providing actual strategies to regulate (intense emotion) would be incredibly valuable to many of us.
Thank you! Love your work as always. Xx
Whenever i feel the slightest lack of motivation the first thing i do is to put up the Vergil's battle theme at full volume to get my motivation back again, works pretty much everytime!
I had all of these around this time last year, I have no idea how I got out of it, all I can say is - nothing lasts forever - and things will get better if you take the time and proper steps to heal yourself. We're all human and we all have times like this - it doesn't make you more or less of anything - and I, unfortunately, had to learn that the hard way. I felt like I was losing time with how many hours I spent in that lethargic state - although time is of the essence... said time doesn't matter if you aren't taking time for your mental health. I'm still battling with this sometimes so idk what else to say lol. Always take your mental health seriously - and only take advice from people who know what they're talking about.
Yess nothing lasts forever you have to keep going....and going there is always a light at the end of a tunnel. I'm glad you got out of whatever you were going through its a process of healing it will take time and episodes of coming back again but at the you will be glad you did not have up and you made it through it all:)
One thing I've learned when talking about your problems is to find someone you can trust to talk about them...
Except for your parents, they'll find ways to manipulate you into doing their bidding
Ripped me apart . I wish I knew I was among vampires all along.
@BeautiFullyBlack and the worst part? You can't fight back
That's why I never talk to my parent about my problems. When I said something, the way they replied, make me feel it's my fault, everything ended up become my faults.
@BeautiFullyBlack i know it SUUUUCCCKS!!!
@@kmayjoon27 exactly!
almost everything here just makes me realise i need to get better mentally.
thank you Psych2Go great videos
keep posting we'll keep watching
I really need a watch this channel more. This video was like perfect timing man
Why are all these depression videos so relatable 🥲
I'm pretty sure I'm not under the pressure of depression, but because of these videos I'm trying to find the threat of such a mindset and start working early to combat the possible issues
That's an admirable job you're doing!
It's always best to stop problems before they seem to get serious, so good job!
Hope you have a lovely day :)
Well, The knowledge that technically I can end it at any time brings me great relief.
"And I can take or leave it if I please"
When I loose motivation I fall back on discipline. If it needs to get done or I know I want to get it done I’ll get it done and feel motivated to continue working once I make good progress.
Yeah that's a great way to always feel motivated. Always strive to do your best:)
Great Video really appreciate your work and your art style
I have clear directions on where to go to improve, the work is on the relative easy side, but time-consuming, all in all, I can clearly state that my motivation, or what I like to call it, my "will to be productive", is dying, or feels already dead, when in school, I can do the work straightforwardly because it feels like a job, so I do it, but once I get home, any homework or any unfinished work feels like an impassable task, so I just shrug it off and relax and have a "lazy day", and these days are getting more and more, and my lack of motivation is just making itself more and more apparent, I was a A+ student before I lost the drive to work and be academic, and only recently have I realized that for my entire life outside of being a kid who doesn't need to think about their future, I showed a lack to want to improve, learn, or obtain a skill to better my life, learn to ride a bike so I can go to school on my own, nope, no will to put in the work and my sister needs to go with me so that's out, I want to learn a certain subject for my future and I already own a book on the subject, but can't find the will to read it despite my love for reading, and only recently I found my 'love' for reading has only grown quiet and I can't even remember the last time I picked up a book and enjoyed it... I was on the road for a scholarship and my dream for college or heck, even a university, but now, it has only become a fear of not being "enough" anymore for that dream... I honestly can't think of the direct reason for my "lack of a will to be productive", I mean, I know depression has some hand in it, but I have no idea what the exact reason is, lost the love to work? Because you have nothing besides your work? Because your not even sure if the subject you want to learn is the subject for you?
Have a wonderful life for whoever you are that decided to read this, thank you for your time, and remember, you don't have to be productive all your life, but it's good to do be productive every once in a while.
Almost two years ago something happened and then I was completely broken down and shattered.I mean it was like all alone in a dark trench..I had no clue about the day,date and time.Neither I had appetite for food nor any interest in socialization.
It was as if I was just breathing.I would sit with my laptop and couldn't even type a page in an hour or more.Would just sit and gaze at the screen thinking of the old things.My productivity and efficiency had tremendously decreased, almost to zero.
Then came depression, anxiety, nervousness,unrest,lack of sleep etc etc..My condition started getting worst.
With no one around me I started searching for help online.I came across those activities which would help me to cope up.I joined violin and guitar classes as hobby.Then started swimming classes.I started listening to motivational videos and also subscribed self help e-books.I would listen to them and then grasp the message and moral it conveyed.Later I became such an avid reader that whenever I used to visit any one's house or a cafe shop I would borrow books if they had of my genera.In my leisure time I would read in my workplace too.By then I had also started writing in Your quote platform.Wrote about 200+ poems and short quotes within a span of a few months.Following this I also started writing blogs.Though an armature but I liked my blogs.I mean I could pen down my thoughts, feelings and emotions.
In between this when I started having panic attacks I went myself to the Psychiatric Centre for help.Luckily it's the best Psychiatric Centre of India and to add to the toping I am lucky enough to be treated by a best Assistant Professor.No sooner did I started for counselling I joined Gym and rifle shooting as a pastime.After rigorous effort and sweating I am able to overcome all the adversaties in life.
Though it was very difficult at first but it is said that well begun is half done.
Today when I look back I see pain,hurt, sufferings,heartache, treachery etc...etc.. but when I look at myself in the mirror I see positivity, optimistic,empathetic,well built muscular hunk to whom people flock to.
I am glad that I am able to make it.People who know me pat my shoulder and proudly say that you are a Braveheart and get inspired from my success.
I've never been so early for one of these videos, especially about something I've been wondering about myself for over a month now. The only thing keeping me out of the complete blue is playing music and certain very few friends that I don't get to be with as much as I'd like to.
Diminishing accomplishments: I received a price for the best grade in my year and I wasn't making much of a deal about it because despite being successful at school, it seemed to me that I wasn't being successful at being happy. My New Year resolution is to get help.
Life is not a race... It's a process, you shouldn't have to blow through you're feelings, but try to understand them, the better we get to know our true selves, the better we get to grasp of the reality of who we really are, don't let nobody tell you that you can't because you can... It maybe rough to get out of bed sometimes, but trust me I know... But doesn't mean you're worthless or lazy... It just means that you're seeing a different side of you that you didn't know existed, when you wake up, I want you to tell yourself that you're important and you can do anything that you put your mind to and ignore all the negative thoughts and words because they are not worthy of your time and energy, love yourself because you deserve to!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰😘😘🤗🤗🤗
This channel does help a lot when learning about myself and what I'm going through
This is amazing!Luv your vids❤
Thank you🙏
I really need this video because my mood much lowered after good 2022.
It is very unique and important video to start the New Year!
I badly needed this video. I feel all of the mentioned things. Thanks a lot!
I definitely relate to this especially #4 😭 It’s gotten easier to cope with but I still struggle
I absolutely love school. But recently, the fire and desire I had for it diminished.
First comment also tysm for the great constant content of rlly helps
2:10 even if I accomplished something no one noticed it can be super demotivating that no one is going to appreciate I have achieved something they said it's small go for bigger than that ... I can feel the rage in me boiling what's worst someone did the same thing as me but they acknowledge that and gave them a reward is their nothing more infuriating than that .... Felt like I more like a rag doll in front of everyone no matter what I do what I do is completely nothing...
It can be incredibly disheartening to work hard on something, only to have it go unnoticed or be dismissed as insignificant. However, it's important to remember that our self-worth and value as individuals should not be determined by external validation or recognition. Instead, focus on the internal sense of accomplishment and pride that comes from setting and achieving your own goals.
Think of it this way, the journey to achieve a goal is like planting a seed, The seed itself may be small, but it has the potential to grow into a mighty tree that provides shade, beauty and fruit. The work you put into it is what makes it meaningful and valuable, not only to yourself but to others.
Additionally, remember that everyone's path is different, and others' accomplishments should not be a source of comparison or envy. What may come easily to one person may be a monumental challenge for another.
Lastly, consider seeking out opportunities for growth and development, both in terms of your skills and in terms of the types of projects you undertake. As you continue to set and achieve goals, you will gain the confidence and recognition that comes from consistently delivering results.
It's understandable that feelings of rage and disappointment may arise when we perceive that our efforts have gone unrecognized, particularly in comparison to others. However, it's important to acknowledge and process these emotions, rather than allowing them to simmer and fester. One way to do this might be to reflect on the specific reasons why this situation is particularly frustrating or anger-inducing for you. Once you have a clearer understanding of the underlying emotions, you can then work on reframing them in a more constructive way.
Additionally, it can be helpful to remind yourself that everyone has their own unique strengths and weaknesses, and that your own abilities and contributions are just as valuable and important as anyone else's. Try to focus on the positive aspects of your own efforts and accomplishments, and take time to celebrate your own small wins.
Also, don't forget to build a positive relationship with yourself, your own feelings, and acknowledge them without judgment. Recognize when you're feeling demotivated and understand that it's normal and it's ok, that feeling should not prevent you from moving forward, it's a passing feeling.
Lastly, don't let the lack of recognition or validation stop you from pursuing your passions and achieving your goals. Remember that true satisfaction and fulfillment come from within, and that your own personal sense of accomplishment is far more valuable than any external validation or reward. So keep pushing forward and let your passions and ambition guide you on your journey to success. 🙂
I didn't think I was depressed until I watched this video
I lose motivation all the time. Feel like I’m doing crap in life. 💙
I needed this thank you...
A wise man once said:
"SHOW ME YOUR MOTIVATION!"
4 out of 5 of these things automatically check the box for me, and this has been an on and off process for me since the start of January... sometimes, it feels like I don't know what's best for me in terms of rest or self care, and unwittingly, I tried to push away my close girlfriend this past weekend because of how I felt mentally and physically. She knows I have depression, but the way it looks and feels to me is different from how it affects her. Sometimes, I don't understand why having depression makes living so difficult 😪😖
It’s the reason that I only had two people say happy birthday. It’s the reason that everything feels fake. It’s the reason how I can see myself and I don’t have anything lovable. It’s the reason that my last friend is pulling away. It’s the reason that I’m only 13
Ah yes I do indeed like being perfectly called out by the literal start of a video.
That bed/window layout is a perfect copy of where my bed is, and they're hugging a pillow. Which I also do.
I can definitely attest to the fact that when I do many things in life I find almost every thing bland. If I'm playing video games especially, I wanna play the game at its hardest difficulty which funny enough I was thinking to myself the other day how that is extreme behavior - all or nothing. I don't believe depression works exactly how a psychologist would describe it and that those of us with severe depression require drugs to function but depression definitely can result in extreme behavior and that's most likely due to feeling numb a lot of time and extreme behavior can make you feel good. Something I know I struggle deeply with in life is that everything is temporary, absolutely nothing is permanent. Whether it's eating, sleeping, playing a game, listening to music, watching a movie, talking to someone, doing work and getting paid for it. Everything is temporary. 🙄🤕
Thanks for the work you do Psych2Go and giving people a platform to connect with.🥺😁
My su!cidal ness makes me more motivated! It allows me to know i can do what ever, with death to fall back on!
Aside from the helpful content, I got to say the art for this episode is awesome!
Everything on this list.. it's really hard to just enjoy life at all.. pray for me..
I love your videos so much!
DUDE I RELATE EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THESE AND I KEEP SAYING THAT IM NOT DEPRESSED BUT DAMN 😭
Hey Psych2Go team,
I dont have a lack of motivation but i dont know how to use my motivation since i slowly recoverd from my depression over the last year and still learn how to socialize again. Could you make a a video about finding a way to use your motivation when u dont know how?
First ask yourself what are you really motivated on??
a pill isnt going to change your problems. change your toothpaste, learn a stretching routine, make your bed it doesnt have to be perfect. get a chair and sit infront of the window with the sun in your face. learn what nutrition the body needs(water/fat soluble vitamins, amino acids, protein, fiber).
"I have studiously tried to avoid ever using the word 'madness' to describe my condition. Now and again, the word slips out, but I hate it. 'Madness' is too glamorous a term to convey what happens to most people who are losing their minds. That word is too exciting, too literary, too interesting in its connotations, to convey the boredom, the slowness, the dreariness, the dampness of depression.” - Elizabeth Wurtzel (1967-2020) author of "Prozac Nation: Young and Depressed In America"
Thx for the video. This helped alot
Psychedelic's definitely have potential to deal with mental health symptoms like anxiety and depression , I would like to try them again but it's just so hard to source out here.
I have been super depressed lately. I finally took a shower and it felt really good. Maybe later I'll try getting groceries.
I have depression and anxiety. I feel unmotivated
I've only realized now that I have no motivation for anything, lack of interest and self esteem. That I think I'm a failure and I'm losing interest in the job that I wanted to do so badly. I can't think of a time when I was motivated and knew I had it in me for school. Now... Well I feel like a wreck, a failure. Even though I have a lot of friends that are always there for me, lovely parents who support me and the best boyfriend I could have asked for. I don't understand why I feel this way and it feels like there is no reason for it. But feeling this way was so normal for me that I thought it was part of my character. I thought I'm just extremely lazy. Now I think I should check in with a doctor.
Yeah that’s why It peeves me off when people say “Oh you’ve got everything going for you, why are you depressed?” But it’s got nothing to do with what’s happening around me, it’s more profound than that. You can be rich and live the life but have depression.
Lately I just feeling like laying on my bed all day, not talking to anyone, ignoring texts, not going outside. And its been a month since I last eat a proper meals everyday....I always have the *****dal thought with me everytime I made some mistakes or when anything doesn't go well. I think its bcuz I lack of interaction with people in real life too.. my roommates isn't here since last month too, and I am not ibteractive with other people too. Haha I tend to show that I am okay, I am happy and nothing happens. No one actually know how I feel. Haha
Whenever I feel like going for a walk my mum questions me and it kills the mood a bit and I just go back to my room, I do understand that she has a list of mental health issues and that herself. When I want to do something outside the home as simple as a walk in the local woodland she always says no and it makes me feel isolated, I know I have autism but I am aware of my surroundings most of the time and it makes me stick the phone all day but I do try something productive but I don't get much feeling from it.
Thanks.
Thanks, needed it I think
Motivation.........what does that word mean again? I...can't seem to remember. But I know that it's important, and that I need it.
my videos are shit but I used to love editing them, now it's more of a chore for some reason, plus I notice that they hardly get any attention (not that internet fame was ever my goal, but still). it used to be my one outlet along playing the bass, but I find I'm enjoying both less and less. damn, everything in this video applies to me.
Self-distancing- yes, I do that all the time. I can't understand why friends say "It's more fun when you're here".That just makes no sense to me. When I write it out, I can see what they are saying, but I just can't belive it. My family is happy that I live over a thousand miles away. And yet this group of people, who barely know me, think I am wonderful. I think they are deluded. I'm severely depressed and yet they think I'm fun? Weird.
They might find something positive in you that makes them happy. Sometimes people are exhausting find time for yourself and make time to do things that you love doing:)❤️
What timing. I literally feel like this right now 😅
i was only 15 seconds in and i felt like she just narrated my whole life story. jokes aside, i think this is the most accurate thing that has ever existed. i used to be so productive, but then one day, i burnt out, and i still havent recovered. i was never a lazy person. like i want to get things done, and i love doing things, but i cant. i thought it was me growing up that i needed like 12 hrs of sleep to function and couldnt get out of bed despite not even being tired. i hate that i feel like having depression is embarrassing, and makes me less worthy, or worse than others. its funny how only yt comments section know about my mental health. i have issues with being open with other humans, but at least i got the comments section as my diary. u guys dont realise how accurate this is for me, my motivation has gone down do 0 recently, and ive always been a productive freak. like in the morning, all i want to do is get up, but i just cant get myself to move, i hate it. even the stuff i have always loved and cherished like, art and crocheting are stuff that i dont do anymore, the same things i would kill to have time to do before. this is crazy how accurate it is. like before, if i had even a spare 30 mins, i would get out my paints, before all i did during the holidays, was my hobbies. this christmas holiday however, i did none of it, i stopped reading and drawing and all those things. i dont even feel love for them anymore, which u dont understand how sad that makes me. now when i paint, i feel like its a chore and that most of the time im forcing it, reading feels like studying, when before i would get scolded for how much i read. i thought it was growing up which stopped my love for video games and things, but i realised thats probably not true. Thanks to this video, i think im going to get back into them, but knowing me, its not going to happen. i feel like my whole day i just think about the things i dont do, and i over obsess about self improvement and changing who i am, but i feel like i actually should be proud of myself. despite not having motivation, i still did well academically, yet i did miss lots of days off school for just feeling so bad and being so tired. everyone ik thought i was over reacting, and so did i, but looking back, i was going through a lot. my inner child is in so much pain, i feel so bad, it needs so much help. i was so incredibly mature for my age it was terrifying, my mum would say she gave birth to a grandma. i was never a child, 7 yr old me felt like an adult. that was probably from severe childhood trauma but thats irrelevant. OMG, i just realised i did this. i feel a bit ashamed and grossed out that i do this, but i dont like hanging out with ppl, like outside of skl, its not becuase i dont like them, i never saw it as pushing them away, i just thought i didnt want to go. wow, i hate myself. i am so sorry for writing so much, this is very irrelevant and people are dying. i dont know why im acting like i am dying, like i have food and water. im sorry for being over dramatic, but this felt good, and i feel healed. i use comments as my journal. it just feels so good. i love u.
now, im going to focus on fixing my depression, instead of trying to be productive. whats crazy, is ive been in this motivational rut for a whole yr. FOR A WHOLE FLIPPING YR I COULDNT LIVE
Well, I don't know if this confirmation is going to help me or not, but I can pretty safely say I've been struggling with depression for the past few years or so after this.
Dysthymia is really fun especially when one of your 'friends' tells you "as long as you don't traumatize others" while seeking help and just one reason not to do it. It feels wrong that the people at the 'fun-time' hotline care more about you than your actual 'friends'. And of course, they keep calling you a friend, but when you question that believe, they lie to you.
I used to love doing a lot of stuff but now I don’t want to do anything anymore.
Depression is a small word with great agony.
I was actually a BetterHelp clients/customer late last year. It was for me, my counselor/therapist helped me see things in a different angle.
I have a strange build and soemtimes i get sad. I didnt have enough time to do what i wanted and just cried.
pls upload more about Body Dysmorphia.
Though I relate to many of these videos, I'll never admit my feelings or discuss them with anyone 😅
honestly, idk, ive been so unmotivated i cant even get outta bed, honestly i dont relate to any of these things, yet ive been so depressed i cant even get out of bed, and im contantly having negative thoughts..
I found something i truly enjoyed recently i was a show i enjoyed ot for some time but it was very short and that was the last time i was happy in the past few months i had fun but it was basically just from exercise one of the last things i enjoy other then finding something to help escape reality
I am experiencing 4/5 of these
She made me happy but then left me for someone else in a blink of an eye.
I cannot seem to figure out why i'm constantly tired, my body feels heavy, I have no motivations, I dread hanging out with others, and I can't sleep without melatonin. Is this depression or am I burnt out emotionally?
My life has been filled with choices between life and death. For me, death has been the only option.
Don't bro
It feels illegal being this early in a phych2go video-
I would love to know which music was used in this video , it is so very pretty
It is so hard for me rn, I have my exams in a week and I have absolutely no resources nor motivation to prepare for them and study... It has been like this for months, I do not know what to do... I do consult with psychologist, but nothing helps, I feel exhausted each day with constant stress...
Is it normal to feel a lack of empathy?
I can say in my life I definitely dread my mother presence however in my case I’m am mentally handicapped she’s all I got instead of therapy I can’t go to her with my problems if she doesn’t know she’s part of the problem
Guys don't worry it WILL get better
Thats what they all say
Thank you
Thank you, I needed this
@@Sky_Dragon_OwO See thats the problem
@@Sky_Dragon_OwO if you don't think it can get better (further depressing yourself) it won't !
Has this channel made a video on how to get out of depression yet? If not, may you please make one?
Thing is....getting out of that state isn't following a specific process
Uk....just like how people are different, so are their experiences, and so is the way to get out of some certain state from person to person
So....as such, there isn't a fixed process
But if you do feel like you are in this state, don't hesitate to reach out for help
I hope you have a lovely day/night, and even if you don't right now, i promise it'll be better soon
Just wait :)
I need to journal 😢
being unmotivated hurts too much for me since I don't get work done and I'm suppose to but it's so much...:(
I'm pretty sure I'm not depressed, but I did relate to some of the signs here. Odd...
Uhm
I've asked someone an egoistic request like this before, but I must get the most information in life, so...
May I ask you guys to make a video on how to "communicate with timid, shy people" or such? I really need that kind of information, since the first 2 timidly shy people I've met til' now don't want to say anything.
Yup. All symptoms present.
Like, really. All of them.
I loose interest in things I like to do (play videogames),
Have a fixed mindset,
Don't want to take part in family gatherings (even just going to the store),
Work problems (technically school problems, ~6h of sleep, long lessons, bad grades, etc.), which plays into over stimulation.
So yeah, not good.
idk who will read this but i just want to vent a little.so ive been feeling unmotivated for a realy long time...idk if its a phase of a teenager or bc im just a dumbo who cant do anything right.im in a exam week rn and i feel like studying but im just unmotivated. i just go like "im already dumb and not good at allll the subjects what will even change if i try to study it ? nothing can change in one night!" and than i just go sleeping. today i got the result of one of my exams which i got a good score on the other time but this time i got 30 points lower than it and increased my unmotivation. my parents trust me in getting high grades,i dont want to let them down...i dont want to see their disapointed faces.my parents are in an other country rn for bussines reasons and im left with my sister and grandma (my dads mom whom i hate)my sister always tells me to study and not to push myself.my grandma always asks how my exams went and than imeadietly after adds that that i ofcourse got lower than the other students... i always say that im not the others and that im quiet avarage .i always tell my twin to deal with my grandmas quetions bc i dont like to feel like a disapointmant with my failing grades.my parents told me thay would bring me aloooooooot of chocolate from where they are but i dont feel like i deserve it...i try to make the chocolate their going to bring my motivation bc i love it sooo much but it doesnt work! thinking about a bright future doesnt make it any better...ive got a history exam tommorow and i dont feel like i could pass it...i just cant.each night i cry bc im so dumb but in the day when people tell me im dumb and stupid i dont care and just laugh it off.i wouldnt care for my grades if it werent for my parents.the only thing that makes me happy is english.i realy love english and think of studying it but my parents dont approve they think i should become a engeneer bc i have drawing skill but the problem is i dont think i have that talent anymore i dont feel happy when i draw anymore,i dont have that light in me anymore...i just feel so numb.i wish i couldv been the child,the student,the person,the sister my parents want me to be but i cant . i dont even know what i want and what my isues are.i have a pretty good life and family ive got spoiled my whole life with love so why am i like this?
i am a 14 year old teenage girl who lives in Turkey
You can't make everyone happy even your parents. Girl let me tell you grades might be important for you to please everyone but at the end there will be a void inside you that will still feel unhappy and unsatisfied. Even you make everyone disappointed for one time it's okay to do that you are not loosing your life. be brave to listen to what you really want from your life it's your life nobody else's you have to choose it will gonna hurt sometime but nothing is greater than feeling really happy in what you do.:)❤️
@@seemranhoro thanks :) you realy made my day
I self distance myself bc i think im annoying people or that i dont really matter to them
Loss of interest/motivation has been a lifetime paradigm for me, lol. Most likely due to trauma at a young age.
Ah damn, I have all. My parents just always said I was lazy so I thought it was because I just suck
i got a score of 4/5!
i think its a bit more complicated in my case though
