Lack of Motivation, chronic depression

2025-06-27 14:38:23
Of late, I've been really feeling down for some reason. I have a lack of motivation and feel lost. I have this chronic depression and insomnia for the last few weeks as well. This has greatly hampered my productivity and professional life. I live an active lifestyle and I consume  a more or less balanced diet but somehow this isn't helping. I never had any mental health issues in the past either. I need some help in this regard. Thank you very much.

Hey Thank you for reaching out. Feeling low, unmotivated, and struggling with sleep despite an active lifestyle can feel confusing and heavy, especially if you’ve never faced this before. Sometimes stress, hidden worries, or even biological changes can trigger these feelings, and it’s okay to seek help. It would help to explore what’s weighing on your mind, establish a calming pre-sleep routine, and gently bring structure to your day even when motivation feels low. Therapy can guide you to understand these feelings, manage low mood, and build your energy back without feeling lost. Take therapy. You can connect with me on nine two six six seven two six zero six five.

it's completely understandable to feel down, lost, and less productive when dealing with chronic depression and insomnia, especially when you're used to an active, balanced lifestyle. While it's great that you're taking care of your physical health, mental well-being sometimes needs a different kind of support. Talking to a counselor can be incredibly helpful. Counseling can offer a safe and confidential space to explore why these feelings might be surfacing, help you understand the link between your mood and sleep, and teach you practical strategies and coping mechanisms to improve your mental well-being and get you back to feeling like yourself again.

I'm really sorry to hear that things have been feeling so heavy lately. When your energy is low, your sleep is all over the place, and it’s hard to find interest in things you usually care about—it can be exhausting in every way. It sounds like you’ve been going through this for a while now, and I just want to say: you don’t have to carry all of this on your own. Sometimes, what you’re feeling isn’t just a rough patch—it’s a sign that your mind and body are asking for care and support. It could really help to talk to someone trained to guide you through this. A therapist can walk with you, help you untangle what’s going on underneath the surface, and slowly find ways to feel lighter and more steady again. You don’t need to have all the answers to start—just a willingness to take that first step.
Next Steps
What You Can Do Next: Reach Out: Book a session with a therapist or counselor. Even one conversation can give you clarity. Small Daily Wins: Try to eat something, drink water, and get even a few minutes of sunlight today. Be Gentle with Yourself: This isn’t your fault. You’re doing your best with what you’re carrying. There is help. And there is hope. Please don’t wait too long to get the support you deserve. You’re worth the effort it takes to heal. Take care of yourself—you matter.

Hi...Please take weekly counseling sessions. It will help you sort the issues that are active in your subconscious mind and thereby interrupting your sleep and mental health. People often fail to understand that mental health is in a continumm and not in strictly compartmentalized categories. They often take is as being happy or being sad as defining their mental wellbeing. But the reality is that we all feel happy and sad at times. The problem begins when this cycle is broken and we tend to remain on one side all the time without any appropriate reason. Taking or avoiding treatment doesn't define being ill or being healthy. If we are facing difficulty it's best to seek treatment early.
Next Steps
Consult a Psychologist. CBT along with Interpersonal Guidance and Counselling is required.
