Struggling with Fatigue and Depression

This is me everyday

When I have something I know I need to do but I can't find the energy or motivation, I watch videos of other people doing it. Like if I need to clean I'll watch someone go through their cleaning routine on YouTube. After a few minutes, it makes it seem kind of fun and I'll leave it on while I'm cleaning so I don't feel like I'm doing it alone.

I get so discouraged. Then when it's all piled up and I already complained a lot I generally tend to continue on with pure spite. My mantra this week is "They can't handle me but I can handle me therefore that makes me stronger than them" 🤣

O totally understand where you’re at coming from. I’m sorry youre going through that. ❤️ I wouldn’t be able to lift my head off the pillow without my meds. Maybe you need a tweak?

make sure you’re nourishing yourself and doing your best to get up and moving, I know both can be hard and i’m not great at either but i’ve noticed a difference when i’m eating at a normal level and since I got my puppy and then had to start getting up and walking her. try to find what motivates you to get up and move around even if it’s a little

I wish I had advice for you...all we can do is try our best.

I don't, honestly. But one thing that sometimes helps is B12 or B-complex vitamins in the morning before work. But I tend to mask things or pretend I have energy when really all I am is exhausted 😅 also, some if the meds I've taken previously seemed to have helped a little with energy/motivation. I've also been trying magnesium, but that hasn't done much for me tbh, but could be different for you!
