        Find a way to feel good. Make it your top priority. Feeling good is the first step for me to get my juices flowing and my motivation back. I have a box with things that make me feel good. movies I love, my favorite music, peppermint lifesavers etc. I go to my feel good stuff and then everything is improved!

            My suggestion ~

            Replace the negative thinking with positive thinking & a great sense of attitude. I did that & it worked for me!

            Look around online for ideas. I actually foumd an online program called 'Habit Busting'. People don't realize that negative thinking is a learned habit, a bad habit that you can change

            Do whatever you have to do to bring some light back into your life. If there's an underlying depression that's not been addressed & treated then get some help.

            You can make your lives better but you fo have to do the work

              There's a great line from my son's Total Transformation System...this is a therapy program for Oppositional Defiant kids and believe you me, lack of motivation is HUGE !

              I absolutely love this thought- You can behave your way to better feelings but you can't feel your way to better behavior...


              Unfortunately I think this means I need to stop drinking... I really hate that part...

                I'm cruising also. I'm trying not to hold it against myself. At this point I am allowing myself to be lazy & unproductive, which it isn't easy after being prorammed to 'do do do'.

                It is what it is until it isn't.

                  I tried this yester day and toldNeo the same thing...I made it to the gym, but I know you may not be up for that, if not put your runners on guzzle some water, and sprint for as long as you can stop, drinkwater take a break, relaz even, then get up and do it again!do it as many times as you can with an aim to sweat buckets...think of it as sweating out all the residual toxins that poison left inyour bones! I ran untol I could barel y breath and felt almost buzzed and relax after ( endorphins) but I felt light and full of energy! I woke up ready to execute the plan I made lastnigh for todays activities!

                  I also take the vitamin c D and B and drink a coupple liters of water. I think in terms of rigging myself of the poison and toxins and letting my body repair the damage and I know. That as sluggish as I feel sitting around is sloing down that process by slowing my metabolism.

                  Give it a try! Just might work *hugs*
