is it normal to just really not want to go to work?

Question

I feel like almost every morning I think to myself that I have hours of PTO to use and if I could swing not going into work that day. It makes me feel lazy. But I try to be a hard worker. I just really don't want to go into work today.

Answer

I usually only feel like this when my depression is getting worse. I'll lay in bed thinking of any excuse to not want to go in. Maybe you need a career change to motivate you? Maybe you need to give yourself something to do before work to motivate you to get up and out? You could start doing 15 minutes of exercise before you get ready, it might put you in a better mood. I feel you though, I've been feeling like this recently and it sucks

Answer

I get it!  But, if it helps put up copies of your bills and that should motivate you.... it worked for me!

Answer

I work from home 💃🏻

Answer

Maybe you need a new job? I love my coworkers so going to work is enjoyable. I think it's normal to take a day off here and there though. Maybe reduce your schedule? I used to work Monday-Friday. After my first child was born I reduced my schedule to 30 hours per week, Monday-Thursday 7.5 a day. It's so much better now.

Answer

I never want to go into work!  But as a manager I suck it up and go.   Staying home with my baby girl is way more enjoyable!  But those stupid bills keep coming!  If you wanted to go to work every day I’d be more worried lol
