Anyone dealt with anergia?

Last few years I have had more periods of a critical lack of energy where I just want to lie down and don’t feel comfortable otherwise. In the past I had experienced this when I had been socialising a lot etc, but during the last few years I have had weeks at a time where I just feel out of juice for no reason and sleeping lots doesn’t really solve it. I try to do activities but I just don’t have the stamina for it.

The last 2 weeks I’ve been trying to make my self go for a short walk every day and that has improved things. I was just wondering if anyone else had tips and strategies. I made a doctors appointment and this time (after like 3 or 4 attempts) they are taking me more seriously and seeing me in person this week.

I’ve dealt with that here lately.

I have anergia and avolition a lot. Only thing that helps is forcibly doing things. Nothing else seems to work, hoping for small miracle somehow. Quite a lot of passive existence and just laying in the bed wondering how it came to this.

Caffeine will help. I recommend a can of Black Monster. It has sugar too for extra natural energy.

I deal with this often as well.

On Seroquel Yes.

Experiencing this currently

Anergia (a-work) means unemployment in greek

I don’t have lack of energy. I try to walk every morning and go to the gym when I can.

Yes lately that has happened to me for the first time in 25 years. I do my best to walk between 2 - 3 km each day.
