Apathy

Tasha

Lately I've been experiencing a lack of interest in everything: in people, in doing anything, in things I love, and just being around in general. This is a very prominent issue with my depression. For me, it's really terrible because I used to be very driven, motivated, organized, and carried an irrevocable passion and curiosity for the world. This all makes it so much worse for me. What are little steps I could take, or some tips to get back any sort of desire to be alive? Recently I've done very spontaneous and mildly reckless things to chase any sort of feeling I can get out of myself. For example, I dyed my hair to a very edgy color, I pierced my ears in two different places for the first time, and I took a trip by myself 5 hours away to the beach for 4 days. I am really trying, but it doesn't seem like anything is satisfying me.
