    Yes, sometimes I do. On those days, I do what I can, going through motions, because what else is there to do? Nothing. Nothing else to do but to keep living. Even if it's just doing it without wanting to, until that "wanting to" kicks back in. And sometimes that hurts - the waiting, the going through the motions - but the better parts, if I just wait, always comes back.

    There's a Voltaire quote that goes (and I think I'm paraphrasing here) "Someone said life is hard. Voltaire responded with 'Compared to what?'" And that always reminds me that really, there is no alternative. Sometimes I feel lost and alone and without a point of reference and that I'll never do anything worthwhile.

    But life doesn't stop there. I still have to go to work, clean out the litterbox, eat, go to school, scrub out the bathtub. No matter what I'm feeling, there are things that have to be done.

    So I do them, because what else is there to do? Things will improve, they always do. And in the meantime....what else is there to do?

    Seriously, though. There is too much to experience in life than to waste it away. If your needing motivation, know it comes from within. You have all you need. Just ask yourself....How bad do you want ________________? Then get up and get it.

    I am a manic depressive and you described 1/2 of my life. You really have to pull from deep within and pull yourself out of it. That being said, some days I can and some days I just sit in my little pity party. I'll allow myself a couple of days like that then I'll just MAKE myself get off my butt and MOVE!!! Then, I am proud of myself and ready to go again!!! I feel your pain thou.......It does sux!!

    Not really manly to say, but I've had down days like that. Even at it's worst though, I always try to keep it in my mind that it WILL get better and it isn't as bad as it feels.

    Stau strong and let it pass! But cry it out in the meantime.

    I had myself a good "lay under the covers in the dark and get my cry on" cry last night. Then I told myself to stop being a baby and make a plan and things were better.
