Motivation?
Depression Support / by Liz23459

...See more So it's coming up to Christmas and I don't have the energy or the desire to do anything. I work from home, and there is no repercussions if I don't work - only no paycheck. It's just so easy to focus on the big picture, and I don't know how to motivate myself when there is so much stacked against me. Right now I have 300 messages to reply to, and it just feels impossible. 300 is a lot and I don't know how to make it less, I've tried focusing on groups of 20, 15, 10 and lately it's been groups of 5 before taking a bit of a break and then going back for another 5. I don't know if it's just my depression rearing up again (and I hope it's that rather than me being lazy). I suppose I would like to know how you all motivate yourself? Especially lately, because Christmas is such a big thing and it costs so much. I always feel bad asking for help and I don't feel able to lately.
