honestly, I feel like that lately. I used to take pleasure in these forums and I guess I still do... or I just stragely take pleasure in typing hl2.net in my browser and haveing a sort of e-home were I know people and have some folks to relate to.

Lately I just dont really feel anything.. I wake up.. eat hangout with friends for a bit (who mostly muck around with one another whilst I listen) and I go on the comp for a few hours and go back to sleep... I feel no creative urges that I used to, I seem to have stopped writing all together which is pretty much my passion.

I just... dont feel. I better get over this.. maybe it's the anti depressants I take. Life seems so godamn mechanical.. nothing ever changes for me. My mates have had girlfriends, new hobbies and friends, I just follow this same godamn path and cant be arsed to do otherwise. Sometimes out of the blue i'l write poetry about how much nothing I feel :| but it usually ends up sucking... I dont feel suicidial or anything or even really depressed.. I just feel like i'm sinking deeper and deeper into a void. My siblings are achievers in school and I certainly am not.. which may contribute
 
It could be the anti-depressents. If you are concerned about it you should ask your doctor or pharmasist about related side-effects.
 
are you feeling nothing, or are you feeling depressed? Cause those are two different things. I find I usually feel neutral most of the time and people who are always bouncing around really happy or sad and cry tend to piss me off. Maybe try sticking a dinner fork into your thigh to see if you can still feel pain.

growing out of what, exactly?

The way you used to interact with your friends/other people.

No offense, but you used to be a lot more immature, and maybe as you grow out of that, you'll gradually begin to interact on a different level.
The changeover would seem pretty alien I guess.

you make an extremely valid point, and no offense taken I know I was (and actually take it as a complement that you think i've matured.. slightly :p). In the mean time however I seem to think this is lasting a little bit too long for my likeing. :\
 
growing out of something you like is unlikely to happen... is it a feeling you get when you have nothing to really look forward to?

sounds like it, this might seem a little weird but for awhile I was super hyped about a psp.. and I was even ready to give up buying games for until the next school year started to buy one... but eventually I decided f*ck it and that excitment ended very quickly. I guess thrills last very short if at all.. but it's weird it seems like supressed depression.. no meds have really treated me right and I have no urge to switch to any of the old ones i've tried (name practically ANY depression drug and i've likely tried it) my dad is a psychiatrist and ive pretty much at one point tried every single one. I guess I just feel like everything is repetitive :sleep:

For example I used to visit OT alot and check out the latest on every single user, takeing pleasure in the humorous threads created by regulars etc. But now I just kind of stick to the mechanical things like whats what in general gaming click a few OT threads to see if anything extroidinary will jump out at me.. nothing ever does. Even my forum life seems more dull :p
 
I felt like this before, I completely lost all emotions for about a month. I guess it was a mixure of stress, boredom and pressure.

Don't worry about it, you get over it.
 
I think alot of people experience somthing like this.

Try talking to new people as well as your current croud. Thats one way I like to nullify the boredom. :)
 
anti-depressants can be more harm than good,are you using them short term or for awhile now?you dont want to get hooked on them

lol neutral,thats how i used to describe how i felt,still do sometimes
 
I've had similar feelings due to long widthdrawlas from WoW...

But seriosuly, I feel like that sometimes...
 
You're not the only one, anyway. I'm frequently experiencing the same kind of thing. Tends to happen when you have too many outside pressures distracting you from the actual process of living.
 
Sounds like you're numb from doing the same thing for too long. As a result laziness and apathy rules every decision. Obviously you're not cut-out for monotony because you realise there's a problem. Some people on the other hand can live like that forever and not really care.

advice is also useless because change always comes from within

carry on!
 
I've felt that, and still do occasionally. It doesn't really bother me too much anymore :|
 
Yes I've felt just like that. Some things that help are changing your diet to something more healthy (unless you already have), and/or picking up some new hobby or anything. I picked up guitar and modding and it helps alot with that lame mood :). gl
 
Anti-depressents didnt seem to do anything to me. :| But it was a good excuse for my sudden "getting better".
Some say drugs like prozac can make you numb to the world and emotionless, but I dont know personally.
 
I've felt like this since I was about 16 (I'm 22 now).. nothing is ever particularly exciting (I wasn't even excited about leaving home and going to Uni) but then I never feel bothered enough to do anything interesting.. exciting things seem quite a struggle, too much of an ordeal to bother with.. I'm not on medicine and I've never been diagnosed with any mental problems
I'd say I feel neutral most of the time, just bored, but then sometimes I will feel pretty sad and hopeless about the future.
Keeping busy with work helps me not think about it, but work is boring and repetative anyway...

i've that prob at the moment,not going to uni,i just dont feel arsed tbh,at xmas time i didnt go in for like a month but that probably says more about my course and its relatively easy first year,wasnt bothered getting up going in for a few hours
 
hl2 is my e-place to hang out.:)

especially with people from loads of other countries, which is cool. this is why i keep coming back...
 
I feel exactly the same way.. nothing seems to be exciting anymore, I got a new iRiver (mp3 player) a few days ago, and I was sooo looking forward to it.. but then I got it and I got excited but it only lasted for a few minutes, and now I'm already used to it =/

All I wanna do lately is sleep, I've got no energy to go to school, I just wanna stay at home and do... whatever :|
