How to stop sleeping my life away?

I don't have the motivation to be alive so the next best thing to being dead is sleeping. My dreams are better than real life. I see I'm wasting time but then if I'm awake all my mental illnesses hit me hard.

I see that I have the same problem. I tried hard to stop but my fanticies just wanted to become real... :( Later I l drank some coffee and learned that you dont need to sleep to enjoy life. So why not try sleeping less. ;)

I would sleep less if food and drink actually tasted of anything - I have no appetite ATM. I would sleep less if what I used to enjoy was interesting and fun again. I've tried looking into other hobbies but I can't focus or concentrate long enough without going into my own world.

I try playing video games that are hard, but at the same time not to hard for me to give up. Or play Minecraft, its fun you can actually do what you want and how you want it. :P Make something, or try doing something enjoyable. I know that can be hard, but why not get a cat or a dog. They tend to show love, and they will sometimes keep you busy. :P

I used to love minecraft, I went to Minecon 2012 in Disney land Paris.

now it's just nothing to me, what's the point of moving blocks around?

My brain is blank. I'm about as creative as a potato. At least with potatoes there's lots of things you can do with them.

i would love a cat but I rent places & I've been moving around the last 3 years & gonna move again because my landlady terminated the contract early so it's not possible to have a cat ATM

Sorry you feel this way. I am currently dealing with depression atm. So why not connect with a listener, they are really nice (Well for the Teens anyway...) and I think they can help you with ur problems. Sorry I am not much help atm. :(

I appreciate you responding, it means a lot :).

I've had a string of bad experiences with listeners. They're either patronising or go within 5 minutes

I am having the same problem right now. I have even started exercises, but I am even depressed while running and the best part is being exhausted from it so I can go back to sleep. I am just so tired of everything and I don't know what to do.

I don't understand how people get endorphins from excerising. Feel like I'm missing out. Good on you for trying though :) maybe if you keep at it, something will come from it. You could set yourself targets to make it more interesting and give you a sense of accomplishment.
