Back to melancholy

Right now all I want is a six month sleep. So I understand not feeling like doing anything. You’re dealing with a bit of a crash after doing so much. It just might take awhile to pass (but it will).

When you are tired, it's best just to get some sleep. Your mood will improve with sleep. Have a good day.

Yeah, I feel like that a lot. I just rest until I feel better. Hope you began to feel better real soon.

Take a break. Take a rest. Do something else that you do like to do - if even for a short while. Often by stepping away you can come back feeling refreshed.

Don't worry. That will pass off .

I feel like this most of the time, and I put it down to my personality type, being a bit negative, and withdrawn, but I try to not let it worry me, and the life itself normally throws something my way, to get me doing something again. This morning, I was feeling the same way, but then, I wrote an article on mylot, that enlivened me up a bit, by the writing. Meal times, also get us to do something, normally too. It is very rarely that we really cannot go on, as some stimulus of life will usually get us moving along a bit somehow, someway, or another. We just need to keep breathing, and not feel too sorry for ourselves, I guess. We need to realise that a mood is of the mind, and body, and so reach up to the love in you still, by doing something easily, that you can do; talk to someone, go for a walk, and so lift yourself away from the mood, and melancholy, by doing something different, and easy to do, right now. Stretch, do an exercise; anything that stops thought, spiralling you down, into a moody melancholy of negative despair.

Sorry I hope you'll be better soon..or a bit chipper. Yes I am all out of happy usually.

@dreamerby I thrive on melancholy. In fact my wife says I’m wedded to it.

I have been a student all my life even after retirement. I think of the blessings that came my way, which uplift my moods or keep them positive so that I can keep going.

hope that you are better now.

I wait until this mood passes. I have been melancholic every day lately. I force myself to do things.

Relax a few days and just look at your current challenges and way forward. Brekadown each thing you do as a challenge to conquer and take a small new activity that you have not done before. It will help you to take care of rest of the things. Some people get focussed on studies , when they aim to get a job to feed a needy or take care or a pet. Some people get motivated to do certain things for certain reasons. You should have to find your trigger and then your life should be back to normal. There are much sadness and gloom across the world and well , if we can we cn mke some moments better. Take care!
