There may come a moment in a person's life when work, relationships, friends, and hobbies cease to please. In such a difficult time, hands give up and do not want to go further. It is important to find a source of new strength, but not give up.
Understand yourself
Primarily? you need to identify what went wrong in your life. Understand your feelings. It is important to be able to express your emotions, and not hide them deep within yourself. It is good if you have a close friend, relative, or loved one next to you. Tell him about everything that is happening in your soul, it will make you feel better. If you can't afford to be honest with someone, keep a journal. Describe what is happening to you on its pages every day. Write down what makes you sad, anxious, desperate, and hopeless.
Maybe you lost heart because you feel at a crossroads, and it is difficult for you to determine your future path in life. The important thing here is to be honest with yourself and answer the question of what you want. You should not be guided by someone else's opinion. Now it doesn't matter what your parents, your family members, colleagues, friends, acquaintances, bosses expect from you. Think only of yourself. Plunge your inner gaze deep into yourself and try to imagine in what role you would be comfortable, what kind of person you see yourself as.
Perhaps despair, fear, lack of confidence in their own strengths appeared not because of an internal conflict, but for an external, objective reason. Then you need to identify the situation that became the last straw for you. Finding this tipping point can help you understand the reasons for your apathy. Consider why this situation has caused you negative feelings and touched you so deeply. So you will be able to identify your weaknesses and growth zones for further work on yourself.
Do not hurry
Don't try to immediately pull yourself together, shake it up and start working on your life. Unless you're feeling lazy or mildly tired, self-flagellation won't help you. Be kind to yourself. Don't rush things. Give yourself time and watch your feelings. Your strength for further achievements will be found precisely in how patient you will be with yourself, in your self-acceptance, self-understanding and love for yourself.
If you have no desire to work intensively, take a vacation. Just read or watch movies. You don't need any violence against yourself. Understand that it is very difficult to engage in creativity, work or an active social life when everything is tired. Seek the advice of a psychologist. Together with him, you will step by step return to your normal pace of life.
Do not get carried away with alcohol in moments of despair. Remember, this is a powerful depressant. Alcohol will not help you regain the joy of life, it will only destroy you completely. Lead a measured, relaxed lifestyle. Sleep, walks will serve you well and you will soon feel a thirst for activity. When you start to join a job or hobby, praise yourself for any accomplishment. Remember that while it is being given to you at the expense of a double effort. Now more than ever, you need approval and praise.
