How I Keep Going In The Face Of Total Apathy And Anhedonia (Apathyception)
Dr. Scott Eilers
@drscotteilersAbout
The mental health field has done a terrible job of providing practical information to people. This frustrates me immensely. There absolutely are scientific, practical mental health tools that can and do change lives, and so few people are teaching them. This channel is for us: those whose needs run deeper; those of us living on the Isle of Misfits Toys. My goal for this channel is to create the highest quality information about depression and anxiety for the people who need it most; those who are living with it every day. My name is Dr. Scott. I'm a licensed clinical psychologist, podcast host, and the author of the book "For When Everything Is Burning." I specialize in treating moderate to severe mood and anxiety disorders because I've lived them for decades. Disclaimer: This content is not intended to be a replacement for receiving treatment.

There's an unspoken Achilles' heal in many peoples' mental health journeys. How do you stick to your plan, strategies, and healing in those times when you just don't care? Periods of prolonged apathy create massive setbacks in your progress - you know this. There's no amount of willpower or positive thinking that can keep these at bay. I used to think these "black hole" periods were unsolvable, and I just had to endure. But in the last few years I've found 2 strategies to help me push through the periods of apathy, numbness, emptiness, and anhedonia and stay on track with my life. I'm sharing those with you now.
