"I Don't Know What to do Anymore"
^ from: (LoveThisPic) - Re-take control of your life when you feel you can't do anything anymore or know what to do with your life.
It is one of the most damaging feelings when you feel like you can't do anything anymore. This is a general feeling of constant disappointment and a lack of satisfaction with life and living. It can also be a feeling of total confusion. I will try to explain my points as best as I can.
Why Do You Feel Like You Can't Do Anything Anymore?
For one thing, people around you may look at you in ways opposite of how you really are. It is also possible you are seen as only being so good- not great or excellent. Any number of feelings can contribute to always being seen as being less than who or what you really are and what you can really provide to society. Alternatively, you may be living through depressing times to where it hurts to smile again or you can not get yourself to ever feel totally happy again.Psychology of Not Being Able to do Anything Anymore.
Let me explain this as best as I can with a little personal insight. You have your own talents and qualities. You have a certain je ne sais quoi that gives you your own intrigue. You apply yourself as best as you can, sometimes even pushing yourself further than you normally would. But no matter how much you try, it is never good enough. The feeling is as if you will only matter so much to other people, which seems to defeat the purpose of engaging in such hard work in the first place. The basic feeling of a lack of accomplishment or only meaning so much to yourself and others leads to feeling like you can't do anything anymore.There is a more extreme case of not being able to do anything anymore than in the previous paragraph. People with aggressive depression can have these feelings expressed in this blog post to where people can be broken down physically and mentally. Some people with hard-hitting depression may find themselves unable to want to leave their room; let alone leave their house. You simply can not tell someone to stop being weak or "man up" (at least among us males) when faced with a situation like this.
In any way, these are feelings of depression, dissatisfaction, and even confusion. Being stuck like this is no fun. Someone who may be in this situation may try to come up with anything to try to get some positive momentum going. These may even pertain to generally unhealthy and questionable lifestyle choices. Whatever works. The fact that one feels like he/she is only capable of so much in the eyes of others only adds to the the feeling of not knowing what to do anymore or how to live life.
Loss of Love or Feeling Disrespected.
One of the biggest feelings of not being able to do anything anymore pertains to damaged bonds with loved ones and peers. Since you feel no one seems to care about you anymore, your loss of trust and love makes you feel like you do not know who to trust anymore (even yourself). This feeling of emptiness and betrayal can further compound not being able to live life happily or have a proper sense of direction in life. When you have these feelings, it becomes tough to really trust anyone or feel loved in any respect.Confusion.
I have defined not knowing what to do anymore as a kind of confusion. The confusion mostly stems from simply not being able to know what to really do to improve your life or impress others. Anything you try that is within your power just ends up making you stagnant. Since you do not know what to do to improve your life or impress others, you enter this state of confusion- and sometimes desperation.Giving Up.
Most damaging of feeling unable to do anything anymore or live life anymore is in simply giving up. Some people give up in the form of not trusting certain individuals anymore. Some others give up in a more extreme form- injury or death. What you do NOT want is to feel like you are so lost in live that the only option you have is to injure or kill yourself or others. People who do not know what to do with their life will feel this way and may engage in something they may never return from.Now that we have established the ground work for this issue, let us try to find ways to get over something like this.
"I don't Know What to do Anymore" - How to Help
Just like any problem, it takes time and understanding to recover. A plant is not going to magically grow to be a tree in a hot minute (or even a hot second). You are not going to heal a broken arm or broken leg in a few seconds. A child is not going to learn how to ride a bicycle naturally. Analogies aside, it takes patience and understanding to first get into help start positive progress. Afterwards, it helps to try to offer some guidance to help make times better for a hurt person. Confidence has to be instilled in someone before taking on any such activity. This is no quick-fix. Someone totally broken down and misguided has to be repaired in many different respects.
It can help to be more supportive of individuals instead of always seeing people as being worse than what they are actually capable of. Give people more chances and try to be more encouraging. Do not try to talk to people in damaging ways that make their inability/-ies worse.
How about if you are alone and do not know how to live life anymore? You will have to try to work yourself to being active and productive. Try to find ways to be happy. Work yourself towards being happier and healthier. It will help if you can find someone to reach out to for help in case you need to. However, if you are alone (or don't trust whomever who are around), this process can be a touch more difficult. So take advantage of whatever resources are available to you.
If you face consistent disappointment, it helps to try to be more hopeful rather than condemn everything in your path. Remember- you can be your own worst enemy! Have people be more understanding of you. People may think you are whiny, high-maintenance, dramatic, mistake-prone, or anything like that; you only hope people can be understandable of you. If there are aspects of yourself which you can change, change your habits as best as you can. Otherwise, have that "take-it-or-leave-it" mentality when dealing with other people. Have people accept you for who you are or let you go.
Final Thoughts.
No matter what, people do not deserve to be stuck in neutral or disregarded in ways opposite of who someone really is. Because of how we see certain individuals, though, we can bring people to the point where they do not know how to live their life, make certain decisions, or feel happy. It is one sad reality of life to realize that we can reach a point in our lives where we do not know how to live life. When we are lost, finding our way again takes a great amount of effort and skill. This is by no means an easy process. However, with love and confidence, we can go from not knowing what to do or think anymore... to taking control of our lives and making the most of what we have. Life does not have to be a dead end. Yet, the many people and influences make life feel like a dead end make us feel like we do not know what direction(s) to take or how to ever completely be content and satisfied. We need all the help we can get when it seems like we do not know how to live our lives.You have reached the conclusion of this blog post.
