It really depends on why you are feeling this way and doing the things you are doing. It's possible that as you get older you find less enjoyment in things that you used to find enjoyment in. It's also possible that there could be other things going on that make you find less enjoyment in those things you used to enjoy. Do you think you would benefit from talking to a counselor? Like someone to help you out with your mental health. You could start with your counselor at school and see if that helps you any and then from there you could continue to work with them or see someone else. Why do you think your parents wouldn't understand what you are going through. Most of the time (unfortunately not all) parents want what is best for their kids and if they don't know or have an understanding about what you are experiencing then they don't know that you need help and they can't give you a hand with that. It might be to your benefit to talk to them about what you're experiencing. They were teens and had rough patches in their lives and might be more understanding than you think. If you wish to talk about this further, call or chat with us.

I’m really sorry to hear that you’re feeling this way. It’s tough when you’re drained and lose interest in things that once brought you joy. It’s also understandable to want to hide your emotions; many people feel the same way and worry about how others will react.

Here are a few suggestions that might help you navigate this difficult time:

1. Start Small: If getting out of your room feels overwhelming, try taking small steps. Maybe just sit outside for a few minutes or take a short walk. Sometimes, a change of scenery can help lift your mood.

2. Journaling: Writing down your thoughts and feelings can be a great way to process what you’re going through. It can help you understand your emotions better and might make it easier to share with someone later on.

3. Reach Out: Consider talking to someone you trust, even if it’s just a little bit about how you’re feeling. You might be surprised at how supportive people can be. You don’t have to share everything at once; just opening up a little can help.

4. Professional Help: If you feel comfortable, consider reaching out to a mental health professional. They can provide support and guidance tailored to what you’re going through.

5. Engage in Low-Effort Activities: Sometimes, doing something low-key like listening to music, watching a movie, or reading a book can be comforting and help you feel a little more connected without too much pressure.

6. Practice Self-Compassion: Remember that it’s okay to feel drained and not to have everything figured out. Be kind to yourself and allow yourself to feel what you're feeling without judgment.

You’re not alone in this, and it’s okay to seek help and support when you need it. Take care of yourself!
