I don't usually make posts like these, but this year I've been feeling very tired and mentally unwell... (read the article)


I recently realized that I no longer have the motivation to do anything, and it's really hard for me to even try to do anything, even things I love like drawing or playing video games. They just don't entertain me like they used to. I feel like nothing is fun anymore. I read online, and it seems most likely that I have abulia and anhedonia, both of them. I know you might say it's not a good idea to self-diagnose online, but honestly, I feel like that's what it is. These past few months, I've been very stressed about school and extracurricular activities in general, since they give me a lot of anxiety, and I feel like they're not worth it. It's so tiring and annoying to feel all of this—wanting to do something but not being able to. I feel like drawing, and ideas come to me, but I end up ignoring them, and my brain just tells me it's not worth it. My last drawings have been unfinished for months, and I'm no longer interested in finishing them. I mean, I am interested, but I feel like I can't. I'm also feeling very irritable, and I've noticed that for the past few days I've had a lot of loss of appetite and my stomach feels kind of strange. Yesterday I talked to my mom about it, and although at first she said things like "it's NORMAL for adolescence" or "it'll pass," she finally understood and said that if I want, she can refer me to a psychologist. Lately, I've also really wanted to go out, but I can't because I don't know how to leave the house alone and I'm scared. My parents don't feel like going out either, so I spend all day in my room doing nothing but wasting time or playing the same game until I get bored. I don't know what else to say about all this, but I just want it to pass so I can enjoy the things I like and feel happy.. ;(
