Stage 4 Lack of Interest

,
It makes me sad to hear that you sound like it is time to just give up. I think everyone who is fighting daily against any medical problem feels that way at some point. I suffer from COPD also. There are days I don't want to get out of bed. I wake up with zero energy. Then I think about all the things I will miss. I will miss the sunrise. I will miss watching the hummingbirds at my kitchen window feeding. I will miss my favorite shows on TV. I will miss working on my chess game. I will miss getting ready to move to a better place to live (moving in 3 weeks). I will miss seeing my grandsons, whom I absolutely adore. I will miss exercising, which I never look forward to, but always feel better physically after I am done. I will miss my wife coming home from work and the interaction I have daily with her. My daughters, siblings, grandsons, and friends would be so disappointed if I just gave up. I know it is hard sometimes to keep a positive outlook and to keep fighting. Sometimes it seems like the easiest thing to do is to give up. I have never taken the easy way out and plan to fight until the end. I enjoy living too much to give up. I would hope you would do the same. Please seek some help for your emotional well-being. Whether it be a counselor, a friend, a relative, a pastor, or anyone you can talk to that can help you vent your feelings. Good Luck and God Bless!

, I hear how hard things have been lately. Contending with COPD is difficult and you're not alone in having days like these. We're here to offer you any support we can but have you had the chance to speak with your doctor about your lack of energy? If not, maybe that conversation would be helpful to you. They may have some options to help you feel a bit better or to at least have some more good days than bad days. What do you think? All the best, Sam S. (COPD.net, team member).

Hi ! Hugs! 🥰💜 I'm sad to hear this for you. Do you have any family or friends that could come visit and play games, watch tv it just enjoy each others company? Here is an article that I enjoyed when I was getting tired or bored with my day.https://copd.net/living/hobbies-for-happiness. Maybe you can pick up a new hobby? Are you in any other online support groups? They have helped me so much and I have met so many friends who are going through some of the same things that I am. I hope this helps. Please, keep in touch. Best, Jackie (Moderator)

Don't know how people are able to suffer so badly know its the end. Sad I am not going that far
