Alright anons, I need some help. For the past few months, I haven't really felt like anything. Nothing seems to excite me anymore nor does anything really make me sad. In general, I feel like shit. I want to do something about my condition without using antidepressants. (I might use them as a last resort tho. Just maybe)

Are you me? I wanted to write something similar. Unfortunately I cannot provide any advice as I am a wrack as it is. I can withstand life only by watch TV shows and movies in all the free time I have, so I don't have to think. I guess it's better than doing drugs or getting drunk, but it's still an addiction.

The only reason I am not dead yet is because I have to take care if my dogs, which I love dearly. Other than that I feel emptiness inside me. Not sadness, not anger but a special type of apathy that makes everything seem dull and unimportant.

I hope you can manage to find a way. I personally couldn't.

Your aversion to anti-depressants is wise, Anon. Just remember that they can be very useful as a gateway to a normal frame of mind. If you do use them, I advise to stay on them for about a month and be as productive as possible for that time. When you come off them, your brain will be somewhat rewired to a healthy routine. They're a great rope ladder out of the abyss, but many people seem to just hang onto it without climbing out.

Shitty metaphors and drugs aside, I reccomend exercise. Force yourself to do some pushups, or go for a short walk, anything. Force that into your routine, and incrementally do more and more. The endorphins will take care of the rest. Best of luck to you and the other Anon. Try to remember that what you're going through is perfectly normal. Many, many people before you have overcome this, and you're no different.
