I been trying to stay productive and keep pushing everyday but if I'm being honest it's really hard to keep motivated when Im surrounded by everyone who also has low energy. Sometimes I don't get out of bed or not enough and I just feel even more sluggish .. I want to get up I want to feel like I can move again but it's hard specially when I have this constant sinking feeling of sadness in my chest that makes it hard to do anything.

I know it's just feelings but that feeling ontop of already being in a dark cold negative home makes it feel like even if I did get up to do anything I would fail or be too tired to continue all the way through. I know apart of getting out of sadness and depression is movement and ive been thinking of getting into yoga but even getting up to do that is hard. And again harder in a home that doesn't allow me to be in a space where I can actually enjoy it.

I hate feeling lazy and tired all the time but the more I lay here the more I wanna stay here and the more I get mad that I do and I feel stuck. I want to get up and move and just idk I just need energy.

@lovingCup504 I understand feeling pulled down by those around you. The energy of those you spend your time around can definitely affect your own mental health. You're trying to stay productive and that's amazing! You're also on here, reaching out for support, which is a wonderful step forward. It's ok to some days not get out of bed, some days are harder than others. It's understandable that you're feeling lazy because of it, but you're doing a wonderful job. It sounds like you tried getting into yoga, I am really into yoga so that's great!

@lovingCup504 I started off by taking an actual yoga class over Zoom which was fun! But that's a bit time consuming so I also really like trying out different yoga videos online. I really enjoy doing desk yoga, it's something I can do when I'm sitting at home all day doing online work so I would suggest looking that up for sure!

I am in the same situation being with depression and having loss of energy while facing exams and lot of social interaction. I am already drained but gets accountable by my family to study and attempt exams which is right though but I feel is much more tough like yours situation to be productive . But it is good to be productive and sometimes lazy which Depression makes us but its just loss of energy not lazziness. Sending you hugs ♥️
