Friends (if I may), how do you find the energy to do things when you're otherwise too depressed to get out of bed? (beehaw.org)

We live in severe crises time sadly 😒 Currently reading a book by Gabor Maté about addiction and drug addicts, including workaholics and people addicted to shopping . It mentions how stress can deprive us from good sleep. Sleep is very important. On the other hand my own experience is that too much sleep can be as bad as too little sleep. What gives me energy is staying away from bad food and drinks and be very conscious about what to consume. Things that gets me going on : music, hobbies and work. Of course your mileage may vary. For some medicines can help, for others social interaction is important. Take care!
