Occasionally I have these days where I don’t feel like doing work or chores. So I’m thinking, why not just enjoy myself, do something that interests me?

But then I don’t find any motivation to do anything really. Not even the things I normally enjoy very much.

Typically I would then waste time browsing or watching videos, but that seems to make it worse. How to snap out of this?

    Depression sucks.

    If it just unmotivated, make yourself go out. Set that as a goal. Just to get out of the house. Then work on doing something outside. A short walk , then look for some longer ones and try those.

    My wife makes me take the dog on walks once a week and that helps

    If it’s more, you might need therapy. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    Beyond walking the dog, I hate leaving the house. I can spike a panic attack doing the shopping.
