Not at all. Depression among other things can make you not want to do anything.

No ! it often happens after trauma, depression, or simply being struck by life. I suffer from the same problem, I simply don't have the energy to re-transcript some of the complex thoughts I have,nor can I concentrate on a very long text /complex task. Has nothing to do with being a terrible person.

No I lose my vocabulary when I'm depressed (which has plagued me for several months in a row now). I also used to pride myself on my writing abilities.

Your writing is beautiful. You can still take pride in it.

I feel like that sometimes. Now I get it why they call it cut to the chase...

I have always been a writer it's something my father had always wanted me to do as a profession but I can't make sense of the clusterf*ck in my head long enough to write more than a sentence these days. I always thought I'd write lengthy letters to the people I loved upon my departure but the truth is I simple can't be bothered is that bad?

It's true though isn't it that had I wrote that on there sympathy wouldn't have been with me. Not my thread so my feelings would have meant shit. It's fickle

I'm triggered by everything. I wonder how many people have killed themselves during the adverts

Saw the most literal use of that saying ever earlier today

No, I have days on this forum for example where I will type and write anything and any where (long as its sort of relevant) and Ill talk for hours, but day's like today, yesterday, I have no strength or energy, this crosses over into real life too,
Day's like these are day's that I really cannot be bothered, I don't believe there is anything wrong to this or any shame to it

I'm sorry you feel that way. You'll be met with sympathy and apathy everywhere, both online and irl. I don't think your feelings mean shit mr.2005 , I sense you didn't deserve what has brought you to this state of mind. PM anytime you want to talk about your feelings.

I have a PhD. I could several books a week. When I lost my career ten years ago, I just stare at a page. It was too hard to read with all the depression.

I've been telling myself for months to start reading again. I go through phases and it's been too long off for the reasons you said. I used to read several hours a day and it was calming and helped. I just keep stalling. I hate it and every day say "tonight" and then "tonight" passes. Nobody is a terrible person for what they suffer though...terrible people are the ones who consistently take their own ego, fear, suffering out on other life.

Not at all, I find myself not wanting to read long paragraphs or books if I'm not vaguely interested. I just can't make myself, usually.
