Is it bad to say that I don’t want to do anything wife my life anymore

Honestly I’ve gotten to the stage in my life where I don’t want to do anything.

No hobbies.
No goals.
No aspirations.
Nothing.

I would be happy if I stayed in my bedroom for all eternity and accomplished absolutely nothing with my one existence on planet Earth.

Anyone else feel like this?
Is this normal?
How do I not feel like this?
I thought this was going to be about your wife from the title!

It is not uncommon, but it is not good. Sounds like nihilism. Try and snap out of it. Take some exercise. Are you not interested in any romantic pursuits?

Its nice to have days like this. But thats it. Just days like a Sunday doing absolutely nothing. But not all the time. You need to find some hobbies. From those hobbies there will be elements of that where you can channel them into long term goals. Be it the gym target, or crocheting a whole blanket, to being a tai chi master, to walking 20 miles a day. Anything. Aspirations, thats totally normal. not everyone knows what they want to do. I know I certainly didnt when I was 19. I still didnt when I reached 30 lol.
For aspirations, you have to take all the things you like and dislike doing; whether thats physical work, or mental work, analytical, caring, working on your own/with lots of people. Then pursuing ideas and reading into them more.

That was supposed to be with my life. Typo my bad. Unfortunately you can’t change titles on TSR once you’ve posted the thread!

I don’t think it’s possible with the anonymous feature :beard:

OP, are you in education or at the working stage of life? Did something happen that has triggered you to feel like this?
Is there absolutely nothing you enjoy doing?

You can't have this attitude all your and refuse to do anything.

I feel exactly the same, OP. I'm in a decent job with decent pay, I worked hard at uni, did well in my exams, always had some hobbies regardless of how busy I was (even if it was reading for half an hour before bed) but now I just have no desire to do anything. Can't even concentrate on a film these days. And yeah, I would also happily stay in my bed all day an not interact with anyone.

It's normal but I don't know how not to feel like this.

Can’t exercise because all the gyms are closed. Given up on romantic pursuits as I’m 23 and never been in one
