I'm so sluggish!

Posted by Deneb on August 1, 2005, at 13:13:23

I need more motivation. I have some things to do, but I keep putting them off. I just don't seem to want to move or something. When I'm not working I just want to stay at home, check Babble for posts and lie on my bed when I get bored.

It's like I want to escape life by sleeping or something. I've had enough sleep so I just lie there and do nothing.

I can't be like this when classes start! I have to somehow get more energy or motivation or something.

My Mom's been on the phone for hours...I don't know if I will call my p-doc today. I don't want my Mom to get the message when they call me back. Maybe I should get a cell phone.

I hate not wanting to do anything. I'm so unproductive right now.

Hi, Deneb.

I know what you mean. I often feel like sleeping to *escape*. As far as the sluggishness, could meds be the cause? Are you taking anything? When I was on Depakote I was very lethargic...never wanting to do anything but sit and read.

I hope you feel better when school starts.

Ugh, no probably not the Celexa...think I'm coming down with something. Feeling kind of hot and flushed.

I used to go to bed just to kill time. I don't do that anymore. I've gradually filled my days with other activities. This includes PB, an exercise class, volunteering, and sewing (my hobby). I still feel the urge to just stay in bed, but I act on it less frequently. It's very hard work to do things, but I feel a little better for it.

I.
