What's your daily routine like?

[SweetSpot086]

I am curious, most of the time I stay idle laying down, staring at the roof. People have a hard time believing that. "You must be doing something", they say.

I am not necessarily depressed. Just not motivated and derive no pleasure (anhedonic) from most activities.

What does your day look like?

Mine is similar. I don't derive pleasure from much, but I guess watching tv shows and stuff is something that keeps me company, so I'll do that. I also run, and then go for walks. I run mostly to manage my weight I guess and also it does manage my mental health. I've been doing some school, so that too but it's really hard. I'm going back to work in a bit so I am hoping that might help in its way. But most of the time I am not doing anything productive and I don't want to. Usually I don't really get up or out of the house until 2pm, usually it's around 4pm though.

Currently, I play games and check online forums. Prior to event that made me suicidal, I didn't have enough time for all the activities I had in my life. From morning till night I was doing things that fulfilled me; exercise and healthy activities, healthy eating, work, and tons of hobbies and interests.

Sleep, wake, eat, rinse and repeat.

What's a routine

I have no routine. But in the lasts days

My routine is to wake up. Have a moment of despair and self pity that lasts around two or three hours in the bed.

Then I somehow move. And eat a piece of chocolate.

Then I listen to music non stop for several hours and manage to start writing out of some strange miracle that forces my fingers to move despite my brain being trapped in a perpetual catatonic shock.

Then I lay on the bed because what else is there to do, and decide to partake in some of life's pleasures such as edibles or any other available substance. Laugh for a few hours over pure nonsensical memes and then decide it's best to end the day quickly and shut my eyes for sleep.

But this is just the routine in the last four days. My routine changes every week.

I've spent many years in bed. I don't really have any regrets. I had too much on my shoulders and resting was all I could manage. I would always consume internet content excessively to pass time. I would listen to music and daydream for hours. I was in survival mode only. I'm okay with that.

Lately the only healthy habit I've been able to add is exercise. I wake up, rinse my face, take care of my dogs, go to work, and then after work I workout and take a long shower. That's all I really do right now. I'm hoping to add more hobbies.

None. Just in bed watching TV.
