I think most people have some point in their life where they lack motivation because they aren't sure what they want. I guess try and think about what you want after college and in the future and figure out how you can achieve it. Or become a crazy religious zealot, whatever works for you.

ya ya
right
allah akbar

thanks for the advice, i guess. i actually am doing volunteer work like 30 hours a week... and it's pretty satisfying. i just don't feel motivation for things that get used to get my hyped up, even things like reading or competing in forensics. i guess another way to describe it is serious disillusionment. i just don't see the point anymore.

also seriously, mada jiang is annoying as fuck. persistence is not how you get through to people, you sanctimonious shithole.

i'll try getting some more exercise in. although tbh, i don't feel much motivation for that either, and i used to run everyday. it was good to hear from people like Jibba (who i've come to expect good posts from) who've gone through the same thing. thanks!

For motivation you first need a goal.
If you don't have a reason for doing what you are doing you obviously don't have goals in life.
Make some. It doesn't matter how dumb it is, even something simple like "make this shithole a better place than if I was never here"

sounds like you need excitement, go to WWI and WCG and travel and do crazy stuff like bungie jump and sky dive and rock climb without ropes. it'll be fun.

Cheat on your girlfriend then tell her about it, this should keep things intresting for about a day or 2 *then you get angry make up sex if you say the right things *

Find your own way to deal with it. Letting other people tell you what to do about your mental issues will get you no where. Trust me, first hand experience here. Of course, it is silly, because I am telling you what to do, but I just told you not listen to what other people tell you to do.

Oh yeah, that's the other thing. During the school year I volunteer at a local elementary school and I'm doing some work at a cool kids center this summer. I can be feeling like complete shit, and walk in there and feel a million times better cause some little kid is gonna charm the hell out of me.

Honestly, I'm probably like a lot of posters here and I still feel empty at times. It's that whole reeling from a relationship thing. Going to sleep really sucks without someone to talk to, but I manage to chug through. My guess is you're a lot more focused and successful than I was before I started working out, so that's a plus for you.

I also recommend reading Stumbling Upon Happiness. It's a psychology book, not a self help book, and it probably won't make you feel better but you'll at least understand yourself more.

EDIT: What the fuck, my race got changed to Terran. Switching to Zerg is another fine decision you can make.
