Extremely apathetic lately...

Post Reply New Topic

I'm not sure why but for a couple weeks now I have been just not caring about anything. I go to work, do the motions but could care less if I was actually there or not. I'm probably going to be getting some training to take french calls at work (which means more money) but again I'm not excited, I don't even care. I don't care about anyone around me and wish they would just go away. I didn't care when I pushed someone away from me so much they've stopped talking to me. Even when I'm hanging out with a girl I have a major crush on, I really have no emotion at all. Even my special interests, I could care less about them right now and just do them more out of routine then entertainment. Nothing really interests me, nothing really entertains me..I'm just acting out the motions of day to day life (and drinking a lot more then usual just to feel something, which I know isn't good ).

I didn't even know how to describe it until I was talking to a friend about it and they went "ah ya, apathy". The only reason I'm posting this here is I was curious about what other people do to get out of this slump since I'm sure I'm not alone.

i know you might not want to hear this but i can realate on what you are feeling, one day i just woke up and my feelings where gone, like they left me in my sleep. and i tried being in love but it just wasnt there and all i ended up doing is hurting the other person.

being apathecic is like being made of straw, being hollow inside, you try to fill yourself up with something but it just dosnt work. i learnt how to deal with it eventally and even if i am alone. i can cope.

sorry if i didnt help.

The only times Ive ever had slumps in emotion levels like this is after Ive been upset and can no longer feel upset i.e. when something major is bothering me or many little things and usually sorting them out slowly brings my personality back. Is there anything bothering you at the moment or draining you of emotion cos if anything you sound pretty drained. You also sound a bit bored and pissed off with stuff really. You've identified the fact that you are not being yourself now you have to try and figure out whats caused it. (Sorry if Ive just made that sound easy, I know full well that it isnt from experience) The constant routine (I know you can't really do anything about work)? When was the last time you had a holiday for example? When was the last time you did something different that you know you'd enjoy or could enjoy? These are just suggestions, I hope theyre helpful. If Im going in completely the wrong direction with this then accept my apologies.

Well I am going to be playing pool on Wednesday with a friend from work. The noise and people is tough but I have a fun time so I hope that helps. I think I'm stressed over what to do about moving. I really don't want to get into it right now but there's no need to appoligize as I appreciate any comments, etc. Don't have any vacation for awhile unfortunately.
