i relate way too much. last year of highschool and i'm truly wasting it. my routine is also just coming home, pacing, maybe b/p if i can. i just doomscroll all day while pacing. i don't even try to study anymore.

 

same i only do tasks 1 or max 2 days before deadline. ive missed so many courses by now cuz i just keep forgetting and the thought of having to finish them all in the next 2 months makes me anxious as hell

 

Absolutely; actively seeking employment but when I was in clinical placement this past summer, that’s practically all I did.. work, home, eat and sleep.. i did dinners instead of lunch.

 

I definitely relate to this. After work/school I am so physically and mentally drained that I come home and go straight to my bed. I want to get out of the cycle, but I’m genuinely exhausted is the thing.

 

for me its not about being exhausted or tired i think its more about nothing just motivates me anymore. showing up on time each day is easy but wtf do i do at home if nothing brings me the same kind of enjoyment anymore as before. the only way i can sleep is by drinking 2 half a litre ciders every day and thats all i do

 

I relate to this, but my mind cannot accept the fact that I don't do anything throughout the day, so it forces me - or sometimes I get motivated myself - to study or do any work like chores or anything that interests me for a short period of time (30-60 min.) not to feel overstimulated

 

some days i feel like that too, usually im most active in the morning and have energy to do tasks for about 2-3 hours. after that i just lay in bed again

 

yes ..... thats me.
As soon as I leave office, complete emptiness. All the bad thoughts are emerging and I have to keep them quiet.
No clue what other people do, how others are not exhausted .....
The sad thing, Ive been doing that for years ..... no decades.

u said it

 

Ugh this is my life too.

 

That's exactly what im doing! I'm a full time university student and worker so I go to work from 7 am until 1 PM or sometimes I would stay up to 3 depending on meetings and schedule.
Then I have school from 5-11.by the time im home I pretty much just scroll on here or watch youtube until I fall asleep. No life gang 💀 I feel so guilty that I can't exercise as much as I want to although my boss finally agreed to let me and my assistant coworker who share the office get walking desks so we're both so excited about that haha.

 

exhaustion is real

yeah i made a list today and i crossed a few items off
its like more than ive done in a week

 

i literally come home and just lay down and scroll social media and come on here. i barely work on the assignments i need to do either

 

hey, I don't even do the school or work thing so you've got a leg up on me 😅 but in all seriousness, this disorder takes so much from us that the fact that you can do school is commendable.

 

ngl lately even remembering simple things like what time the lecture starts has been difficult and can throw me over the edge. i guess thats just normal starved brain behaviour tho

 

yes. i work early in the morning, come home, try and do school which usually fails bc im too exhausted, then i doom scroll until my online friends show up for a chat. i literally do not move from the couch/my bed unless im working

 

relatable. it can be so exhausting even just standing up..

 

Lol, there is an alternative?? I mostly complete the bare minimum I have to in order to not end up homeless but once that's done it's absolutely back to doomscrolling and bedrotting 😭

 

holy shit this is me the only way i can finish assignments/study is if i sleep until 1pm
