Motivation

This_is_me1

Does anyone find that motivation levels can be really low or zero sometimes? No matter how hard I try I just can't find the motivation to do even a simple task sometimes. I would be happy just sitting by myself either listening to an audiobook or playing a game on my phone.

  • Could this be autistic inertia?

    I often lack the motivation to do things and look around and become sad at the mess I slowly create around me. I know I have to do it but just cannot take the first step in the process. It is a devasting loop of despair until I finally find the stimulus to get things done....feel better ...then the cycle starts again.

    I agree routines may be the answer but where do I find the motivation and energy to create a routine. 'I'm wicked and I'm lazy'

    Hi  I noticed your typing a reply.  I look forward to this as I find our conversation stimulating and fruitful.  Regretfully I will be a little while in relying as I now have to go to work.  Incidentally have been choking and gagging for the past 5 minutes just thinking about it... That seratonin and stress it seems.  I am literally sick of my workplace experiences... will write soon,
