Sudden loss of interest in everything. This has actually happened to me. After the death of my first son, within a year, I became so indifferent literally nothing interested me anymore. I have realized that nothing brings me happiness and how everything is actually boring. Lunch at the restaurant? No way, I don’t have the energy for that. And besides tiredness, why would I even leave my home? Nothing good waits for me there… The problem? Indifference. I wasn’t living. I was just letting my life pass by. If you know someone who has suddenly lost interest in everything, be sure to talk with them about their emotions and problems.
