Fandom has been my main hobby for forever but... depression

[(Anonymous)]

Just a vent but I feel like depression has finally taken away my last main interest, fandom, which I have been active in for 12 years :( but now I can’t write anything, it always feels like my brain is falling out of my head. I watch things and want to participate but in the last few months I’ve become isolated and don’t even talk to people online anymore. I read stuff, but it sometimes makes me anxious thinking about fic because I should be writing but I can’t... I had wips and worse a fic request I was doing for someone but then I had a meltdown and it’s been like I have nothing in my head ever since... and I just feel like I’m losing everything. It sounds dumb but like... I feel like my interests have been slipping away, but I always thought I would still be into fandom at least. But now it’s like I have nothing. I wake up, I go to work (which I hate), I come home, I aimlessly try and fail to find something to interest me for hours, then I sleep. I barely feel like a person anymore. I don’t get excited about anything.

I don’t know. It sucks. Sorry if this should be a second comment. I still hang out on here, as a lurker, wishing I didn’t feel this way :(

I hope you feel better soon, anon.

Depression sucks and it sucking the joy out of your hobbies is the worst.

I'm so sorry, anon. I've been there. Depression sucked the life out of me for a while. There was a time where I couldn't feel pleasure or happiness about anything. I just felt nothing. A short term hospitalization and the right meds got things mostly under control. But I get it. You can get through this, anon. You can figure out what works for you. You can feel happiness again. I'm sorry you are going through this now.

Also, if you at all like animals, I'd like to suggest maybe volunteering at your local shelter. I know that even at my worst, being with cats and dogs could at least relax me, even if I didn't feel anything. There is a reason emotional support animals are a thing. Just a thought.
