I, probably like many others, am struggling with exhaustion that seem hard to shake. It kills my hobbies and interests one by one, it makes doom scrolling and watching stupid shows seem like the only valid activities I can handle.

I have tried the “touch grass”, I regularly switch off my phone to take breaks from social media, but it is hard to find motivation to anything but sleep and watch TV on the weekends.

Are there methods to deal with this sort of exhaustion from… gestures broadly at everything ?

Edit: after the initial replies I realized I probably should mention that I already do regular therapy and take prescription drugs for depression.

Edit 2: Thanks everyone for replying and handing out advice. My plan moving forward is to get some labs done to make sure I don’t have any deficiencies and have my meds adjusted if they need to be. I will try eating better, be more conscious about sleep and regular exercise.

    Get a sleep lab done and check if you need a CPAP machine.

    There is so much most want to do in life. Perhaps you are stretching yourself to thin, trying to do it all at once. Don’t see the current lack of something as “killing” your hobbies. They aren’t dead, you’re working towards those things. It’s a plan for the future. Right now you’re focusing the energy you have right now on something else (for now).
