I don't seem to be interested in anything

Ohh..u guys are so nice. Organise outing..cool..
Anyway honeybunz, why dun u take a month long holiday?..Go somewhere far, like US or Europe, or even nearby countries. When u are there, go make new frens, just simply go up to strangers and strike up conversations, perhaps in the subway or a restaurant, even in the plane. Trust me, meeting new ppl widens your view and thinking about this world. Quite often, u will come upon ppl who are less well off than u (not only financially wise, many other things as well). And then, u will come to realise that ur life is not that bad after all.
It worked for me, and am sure it will work for u too.
Most importantly, think about wat u are really passionate about in life. And go take action to make it a reality. Good luck!

Your tiredness is definitely mentally and not physicallyÂ… when this happenedÂ… you will basically lose all interests in life and workÂ… Things will then start to turn colourless and lifelessÂ… and no matter whatever things you are doingÂ… you will feel that you have no energy, strength or interest to do itÂ… new things donÂ’t interests or fascinate you anymoreÂ… Perhaps you have been working for too long a time and havenÂ’t take a break in recent yearsÂ…
2 ways to solve this problems:
Firstly,
Basically you are too tired in life mentally… suggest that you go to another country for a long break… either you go to a much poorer country in terms of lifestyles (when as compared to Singapore)… in this way… You will start to see the hardship of other people in that country and hopefully you will become much more “content” in life when you return… During the trip… you should try to see how people in that country live and spend their times and when you are back… you will definitely become energetic as yoru body is now charged and you are fresh to go again…
Secondly,
Maybe you are too bored with your workÂ… worklife has took a large portion of our life and thus if you cannot achieve anything greater than what you had over the last few yearsÂ… You will felt boredÂ… you can either change your working environment (re-deco your desk or office)Â… or simply change to another jobÂ… (different job scope or different company)Â…
Frankly speakingÂ… sometimes I felt the same way like you doÂ… we are like antsÂ… wake upÂ… go workÂ… come backÂ… sleepÂ… and wake upÂ… this cycle has been going on and onÂ… sometimes just want to scream at the top of my voice as I am too frustratedÂ…
Perhaps you can find some ways to rewards yourselfÂ… take for instanceÂ… tell yourself that in another 1 or 2 months timeÂ… you will be going for a tour etcÂ… By the wayÂ… this things wonÂ’t go off so fastÂ… try to give yourself timeÂ… and it will then go off slowlyÂ…
Don’t sleep too much… latest research has shown that sleeping too much will make one become more “stupid” and slow in reactions…
Hope my “advice” is of help to you… [/i] -
guess its just being stress out bah....
Singaporean got stressful hectic life ....and the whole place is too lacking of nature....
i think best is just let it be.....be lazy when you can....sleep when u need.......consume some DOM or vitamins,
take some days off...go sungei buloh, bukit timah hill/ tree top...just take in the view, or go to the seaside at 4am watch sun rise.....don't hv to think of anything....just relax lor.....
then soon you should be able to find yourself fully charged again to spring back to your old self....
it works for me...
take care! -

You seems to be interested to write in forum though... haven't you notice??Originally posted by Honeybunz:One friend says it's mid life crisis. Another friend says it's depression.
Currently, everything goes well in my life. Good job, nice friends etc.
But I don't seem to be happy leh. I don't know what is bothering me.
I get bored with all the things I have even though I keep reminding myself to be happy and contented with everything and that I am a lucky person.
I try to have a bit of motivation by setting new goals. I thought I just need a push to feel more fulfilling. But I am just not interested in anything to set any new goals, new targets. I keep feeling "I've been there, done that. What is there new for me now?"
I notice that I smile less, laugh less. I feel physically tired easily. Everything I suggest to myself to do certain thing so as to feel less bored, I will always have a reason not to execute it eventually. Eg. If I think of doing window shopping, after a while, I will tell myself that it's so boring cuz I have done it so many times.
Things that I have not done before, I will feel lazy to try out.
I try going shopping, thinking that it should be interested. After all, shopping is all ladies favourite past time. I can walk the whole shopping mall and find nothing interesting or pretty enough. I don't have any motivation or push to make me buy anything. Makeup, nice dresses are all too boring to me these days. In the end, in the past couple of months, I totally never buy anything for myself, except toiletries and shampoo stuff that have run out at home.
Even if you show me the nicest thing, I will tell myself "no point" (ie. pointless to buy).
I constantly have this very lousy and sian feeling in me. I try keeping myself very very very busy at work. It is true that when I am loaded with works and deadlines, I feel slightly better. But once I clear all my work, and relax a little, the lousy feeling starts flowing into me. Then I have to find something to do again.
Spending time with loved ones become too tiring for me.
In fact, last weekend, I literally sleep more than 15 hours each day. I wasn't tired. But I just didn't feel like doing anything.
I really dunno what is wrong with me.
Mid life crisis? -
Honeybunz,
God is calling.
To quote St. Augustine:
"You have made us for yourself, and we will not find peace till we rest in you."

Or maybe you can take leave from work for a month (if possible) and go live in another country for that month.
Or find a bf, if you dont already have one.
Go stalk celebrities. Get registered to a modelling agency. Audition for a hosting stint on TV. .etc etc -
same thing i experienced abt half a year ago. but somehow, my church needed ppl, and i ended up helping with the Sec 4 confirmation. i was pretty reluctant or rather LAZY at first, but i guess getting started is the most difficult step to take. Once it got started, the responsibility i had for the kids became a close friendship and i started feeling better. Seeing them getting confirmed also put a big smile on my face. i guess it is through helping others that we sometimes get helped? u get my geist? i hope things will start getting better for u! oh yah, prayer helps too bunz

Mind if I ask your age? Girls have a lesser tendency to turn schizoid but there are. Go ahead and wreck some havoc to spice up your life, but mind your safety. I have been suggesting to missqi to blow some things up to destress, now I am giving the same suggestion to you.Originally posted by Honeybunz:One friend says it's mid life crisis.

Honey, it's called aging. Our physical body undergoes a biological shift every, I think, 8 years.

i feel so and i m 16 -.- ...Originally posted by Bontakun:I am more concerned with the highlighted...
I supposed you have nothing to look forward to after work? You may be lost in your "direction"? You feel like being stuck in a pool of mud and unable to get out? You feel you are sinking and also no way out? You feel like crying because no one truely understands you? You feel virtually nothing you find can truely satisfy your meaning of existance? -
You are in your adolescent years. You have the raging hormones and as a teen, you have all kinds of emotions popping up in your mind. My advice for you of this age: Study. You have nth to worry about, unless yr family is in need of another income then you have to comply abit. ELSE study is your way for now. You can find out more about life as you go along. When you working or finish studies and still feel like this, then come back here. I will tell you a different answer.Originally posted by snop_coolz:i feel so and i m 16 -.- ... -

well, if you feel like doing anything and need company, give me a buzz yah? -
"without living for jesus christ your life will be meaningless, and nothing can satisfy, theres no such thing as job satisfaction either. we're created with a void in our souls only god can fill. only then will you have real peace and joy and a meaning in the universe." 10 billion people have agreed.

you need to get out of singapore for a while. it really helps. go somewhere overseas for at least 2 weeks.
-
i agree! i reckon the mian thing would be to break out from ur current routine for a while. do something that u normally won't. it might seem daunting or u will have thoughts like wads the point, or i'm too lazy... but once u get started, i think things will go smootherOriginally posted by starblue:you need to get out of singapore for a while. it really helps. go somewhere overseas for at least 2 weeks. -
Actually, I feel like that too.. Just so sian of doing anything, new or old. Just lazing around, play comp watch tv sleep.. I think if we keep suggesting her to do new things it won't probably work because she will be sian to do something new... Have to go drag her out of her house hehe Anyway, try volunteering? Bring meaning to you own life and also to others.. You like animals? Volunteer for the cat welfare society or SPCA. If you like kids, go to the various children organization... At least there is some meaning.. Helping other people could be what you need now and do it with some friends so got a bit of motivation.. hehe..
