I’ve been in the biggest rut for the past few months, and everything is starting to feel a bit more pointless than it did the day before. I’m feeling constantly pessimistic and totally unlike myself so I’m looking to read something that can help make me feel a bit less crazy and a bit less alone in this feeling, and hopefully something that can help pull me out of this constant state of “ugh, I cannot be bothered with work or hobbies or life!”
Nothing too upbeat because I’ve tried it to cheer myself up and it didn’t work. Even the new Emily Henry book didn’t cheer me up one bit when it usually gets me giggling and kicking my feet. But nothing too dire or sad either. I’m currently reading Flowers for Algernon and I think it’s making me feel even more sad lol.
Just want something that helps acknowledge that this feeling sucks but that it will pass. Not too fussed whether it’s fiction or non-fiction. Thanks!
