Today, I feel like shit and have zero motivation. Anyone else?

Can't snap out of it today. I think the cumulative effect of being inside for six fucking weeks now is starting to get to me. Physically feeling really grotty, thanks to shit blood sugars that have me wondering if I'm harbouring an infection.

Anyone else having a shit day and in a shitty mood? This is a thread for wallowing if so rolls in mud of despair

Definitely take to the bed. I was in a real funk yesterday and took a half day to go to bed for the afternoon as I just wasn't fit for anything else. I slept too.

Much better today.

I’ve had a few massive lows, the only thing that got out of it was exercise and sleep. Tuesday was horrific for me

Yes, today has been awful. Every little thing has had me in tears, my kids keep wondering why I'm crying. I'm normally upbeat and good at finding the positive but today defeated me.

Interested in this thread?

Yes.

I think it’s the continued depressing state of the world, combined with truly shitty weather.

I seem to have one day ok, one day bad.. up and down like a bloody yo-yo since lockdown began.

Ladywinesalot · 30/04/2020 22:23

Yep was like this alot last week.
Couldn’t see the light at all, like what’s the point to life and all that.
Don’t know what the answer is

Today has been 100% awful. No reason, in fact objectively it's not been the worst day but I have wanted to cry all day. Or go back to bed and just give up. Or run away from everything and everyone.

Going to go to bed and go for a run in the morning and hope tomorrow is a better day.

Flowers to all who are struggling

Yes, today has been soooo shit. According to my libre graph, my blood sugar has been in target for 0% of the day 😂 I'm mainlining wine, crisps and insulin.

I feel pretty much like Frownette. I’ve put about 7- 10lbs on and by god I can actually feel it when I’m sat down, all around my tummy, like a cuddly tyre, I feel like a Teletubby! Waiting for the nicer weather to return so I can walk some of it off! I just hope I can fit in my normal clothes again, after lounging in pj’s & comfies for this long!

I've coped most days (apart from 1st few days of period as iron levels drop and am knackered) but today I just could not be arsed with anything. I baked a bit, but apart from that, nada!

RosesandIris · 30/04/2020 22:53

I went to bed at 7pm last night. Just couldn’t be bothered. I have lost all motivation and am feeling alternately tearful and extremely irritated. Everything is pushing my buttons. Just at the end of my rope. Last time I felt like this was when our house flooded.

I am lucky because life hasn't changed too much - I have realised just how unsociable as a family we are!
I have shed about 1/4 of a stone because I cba to shop until there is no milk for cups of tea, no tea bags, no bread and nothing in the freezer to cook for dinner.
I hate how busy our corner of the countryside is - full of cyclists, dog walkers, walkers etc steaming past the front door less than social distance away so I can't open the window and listen to the birds

@Absentmindedwoman sounds like an early night and a pint of orange juice would work wonders, I always wake refreshed after that, and all signs of a potential cold / sore throat gone.
