Evening all how is everyone doing, What have people done today?

I'm going through the boredom phase this evening, head is coming up with stupid things to do some not sensible just for the crack. so thought It would be better to  chat on here not to worry if no one is about.

Got up for exercise class this morning worked hard well tried to but had no energy in my legs or arms felt weak and dizzy. Pushed myself but nearly passed out. Home then what breakfast made myself go out for a walk ended up at a disused quarry, one of my places I ahd chosen. Walked around the edge then away as visions of me floating face down. Wandered along as just couldn't be bothered, home again. Visit from my grand daughter she is ver y chatty, but after a while I wanted her to go home is that wrong? Plus I had to hide my arm due to the wounds on it, too hot to put on a jumper managed it hide it though. Then sat and cried after she had gone home cos she said she loves me....Just sitting here TV on haven;t a clue what the film is about, eaten loads of rubbish feel sick debating making myself sick? 

So what exciting interesting things have people done today I hope you have managed to do positive things.

You all take care of yourdelves. xx rolleyes

    Look for a progressive interest where you can see a result at the end of a future period in your life.

    I read a great deal, even though I cannot remember what I have read. My books now are picture books and they help me remember past interests and travels.

    In my case I look forward to new interests, and study, I need to use other parts of my brain. This makes no difference as even if I fail it is part of living and I then look for other activities to try. My interests seem to help me control my negative thoughts and sometimes give me positive thoughts and moves.

    You have been on site for some time, I never knew you were a Granny, could you not try something with your Grandchildren. Yes I understand they may get overpowering although that may be a small inconveiniance if you find something interesting. Youth brings out the youthful thoughts we used to have when younger and helps us as we get older to get more life out of living.

    Always try not to become bored, when bored we have low mood and be become lacking in positive ideas.

    We are coming into Summer could you try Activity Holidays, there are quite a few to try out there and you could make new friends with new activities and interests.

    At this time of the year I want to be able to push myself, yes my depression and anxiety is always around so I look for diversions to help my mood.

    Give it a try you may suprise yourself and move on to a more fulfilling life

      Hi Bob

      Your reply took a while to come through not sure why.

      I try I was looking at visiting my sister start looking at flights train times then the world just closes in and I jsut can't face it. i have travelled down to her a few times over the past year and she has visited me but it seems to get worse not better.

      I have no interest in anything, I exercise, I go for walks with a friend from work who really pushes and encourages me when I am struggling but I just don't seem to have the mental energy enthusiam to try new things I did at the stat of being on my own then things have just gradually got worse not better as more and more things have materalised from my past which I have suppressedfor so many years.

      I ahve good ideas for activities then as it gets nearer or I start looking at things I get worse I've booked several things then cancelled them because I just can't face them.

      Grandchildren I try with them but I do always feel as if I am in the wya with my daughter in law, so I find it hard. They are great children and they are doing a great job brigning them up but again /i find it hard after a while playing reading etc. 

      I just don;t know I'm sturggling with work, the house, when things go wrong or break etc I jsut sit and cry cos I can;t deal with it.,

      I am so glad you are getting on well with your boat courses and you get your dream..

      thanks

    um! not energy! exercise class!! whats that, I couldnt do that, and motivation, would take a steam roller to get me to do that, and why anyway ifyou dont feel up to it? and even a walk, that takes motivation, ar eyou in a mixed mood.  Do something new something you have never tried before even something unlikely like matial arts. a few people we know really benefited from that and were changed people afterwards. Just an idea

      I know the title seems stupid bit like me!!!!! but as the day goes by i get less enthusiasm energy I try to do the things that you are suppose to do to make you feel better but it all goes down hill as the day goes on or even starts.

      i've tried different classes boxercise, aqua aerobics, even went pony treking struggled to walk the next day lol and kayaking but paniced on that one. 

      Then I end up lying in bed, no housework, no cooking, no looking after myself properly. So going to the exercise classes is hard and a front to keep people happy that I am trying don;t enjoy then that much.

      sorry I;m prattling on so I;ll shut up, no good with words.....but thanks for your reply. Just get fed up of trying and keep trying,,,,

    Hi Tina, I can understand the stage you are facing. Every one in this world faces such a stage atleast once in their life. 

    Few months ago I too had such problems. I used to get demotivated easily. I was lacking my attention at my work. That time I saw an ad on Amazon of some energy gum. Then I ordered it and chewed it.

    The energy gum is made up of nootropics which boost our energy and helps to reduce stress. NeuroGum provides one of best energy gum. I think you should try it.
