Sentient computers and screens are everywhere. Our days are filled with loading-and-watching. We trawl for new videos, stare at a tiny screen for hours, or flirt with a virtual friend.
These are all inputs into our brain that drive our thoughts, feelings, and actions.
But there is another type of input that does not require any processing by the brain. This is the one that comes from playing, watching, playing, checking my emails, cooking, or setting a timer.
When I watch the sports I am doing, or any kind of work marathon, I am constantly switching between inputs into my state of consciousness.
At times, I may not be sure what state I am in. I am physically tired from work and want to sleep. I may be emotionally exhausted from the day and want to relax.
I may be considering suicide.
I may be listening to my podcast and thinking about the type of music I want to listen to next. Or attempting to work on a project that I have always wanted to do.
I may be trying to relax with a book or get my mind relaxed with a video.
I may be using my hands to rest, relax, or think about something that interests me.
I may be trying to increase my social support.
I may be trying to decrease my stress.
I may be trying to experience more pleasure from life.
I may be trying to reduce loneliness, anxiety, or depression.
I may be trying to withdraw from people, avoid online socialization, or just be with other people.
I may be trying to lose weight.
I may be trying to learn a new skill, practice a new ability, or master a new one.
I may be trying to be more active to protect myself from boredom, fatigue, and no time to think.
I may be trying to reduce or change my eating.
Mentally determine your answer based on your mood and your past experiences with the drug or therapy.
Consider what compensations you are willing to tolerate.
If you are worried about being prescribed something that may make you feel worse, or not help you focus, it may be time to get professional help.

Frother
Frother is a professional who helps women figure out their mental health. After nine years of marriage, she came to realize that despite her best efforts, she couldn't be her husband's only cheerleader. She now gives detailed coaching through Zoom, wanting help to guide women through their most difficult times. Her downloadable meeting, Birds of a Birds program, and 24/7 access to coaching via the internet are great for meetings.
Sometimes a defined loss of motivation isn't a definition of hopelessness.
You want to be at the top of your game, that's why you want to be remembered for your work, how you made your money, and how you cared for your children.
Setting big, all-or-nothing goals is super-self-defeating.
You need a week or 60-hour benefit to feel positively disposed towards food.
How do you create that week or age range?
On the one hand, you set a goal you are going to reach in order to make yourself feel happier, and you observe that you are making it without enough thought, yet you are still hungry. On the other hand, you notice that the desire to get back to a pre-set meal is still there, and you go eat it.
Discover Your Core Other (Optional)
The core, more negative element in Core Detachment's Diagnosis, is the core negative affect—mood dysregulation, core damage. A core damage listener might describe this as "the core hurts you should be able to live with and address."
When a core hurts you, it means that you have an emotional core that wants you to do harm or cancel the response that is holding you back from expressing more freely what needs to be said or done.
