I can't, or perhaps don't want to, get out of bed. I am a mature professional and I recently chose to quit my high-paying job (thinking that my problem could be attributed to one of my superiors). My frequent absences from work (which was due to this problem - staying in bed for many days) have also triggered this mutual termination of employment in some way. But I am having the same problem now, even when my I am just relaxing at home (as I can afford it): Am staying in bed for 5+ days. I went to see a psychiatrist 2 months ago (before quitting my job) - but he was not of great help after two visits. He was focusing on giving me pills (which I took, by the way). I am not suicidal (but my brother died of suicide 4 years ago and I generally believe that this negativity is genetically inherited, with my mom and some others in the family being so negative - when there are no serious reasons to be so). I am generally positive and want to accomplish a lot of things. So what's the problem? Why is it that I don't want to get up everyday? Hope I haven't wasted my time by typing this.

Dear user. I can understand. You do not have depression or anxiety disorder. You are YOU. Whatever your behavior today, whatever your body language today are learned from your past experiences and social interactions. Whatever you have learned can be unlearned or over written. This is a continuous process happening throughout your life. There must be a reason for your present behavior. We need to find out and then I suggest cognitive behavior therapy for you. Please provide more details. Take care.
