Find motivation in life? please help?

Hello. When I was a child I would get involved in many activities, sports. I was a very good student. At work I used to be very responsible. But now I feel so unmotivated. Nothing excites me. Sometimes I don´t feel like doing anything. Not even watch a movie. I want to change, be like I was before. My actual situation: I quit my job. Don´t have a boyfriend. I am going to a psychiatrist and I am on medication for depression an anxiety: (cymbalta and zyprexa). Your advice will be helpful

I am in the same boat. its hard to be motivated when you are down. As you are unemployed I am assuming that money is tight as well. I would suggest joining a class. Something you have always wanted to do. I joined a swimming class and it helped for a while unfortunately I have just found a job seventy miles away and I am working 11 hours a day as such can no longer take swimming lessons.

Try going out for a walk, if you can.

the thing is I know how difficult it is when you are down to do anything. i will just make a couple of suggestion that could help.

Go to the library, find a book on motivation or any psychology books.

Join any group, volunteer. Find a volunteering position which will stretch your mind. I joined a volunteer group as a board member, it was challenging without the stress.

Find local networks, depending on where you live, there are some local charities which run groups for people in the same situation as you and it can be helpful.

Good luck and i hope you will get better
