Apathy

 What is this weird feeling

The above page at the New Yorker explores something that post covid is affecting a lot of people myself included. I have suffered with dysthymia since around the age of 13 but this year the apathetic side seems to have taken over. Last time that happened it was summer and I was 8 months pregnant.

I sleep a lot like 18 hours a day something I didn't used to do, except once in awhile when I'd been pushing myself hard.

All the projects I was working on have lost interest and I keep looking for ways to remove them from sight because I don't feel like I'm ever going to be interested enough in them to finish them.

Everything I thought I was is gone and I have no idea how to find myself again, the last time that happened it took me several years to build a life from the ashes of the old one.

And tired, and sad and generally in an I don't care about anyone or anything mood.

Here is what I know

 1) This blog was a creative outlet for many years but times change and so have I

2) I would like to continue using it but at this point in time it is hardly being used

3) I can either keep this blog and the others or delete them

4) My creative brain is currently empty and I need to find a way to either refill it or give creativity up at least until I can fill it again.

5) For the moment the jury is out but I will revisit this idea again in a month or two.
