Lack of concentration

Question

Asked for Female, 34 Years

I was laid off from my last job as the company was downsizing. I feel i have been in a rut since that time or even before that. I cant seem to be able to motivate myself to look for another job though its been 5 months. I tried to do some reskilling but am not able to concentrate on that as well. I keep wasting my time doing nothing. Despite knowing my problem, i am unable to do anything about it.

Loss of interest, decreased concentration and attention, feeling low and disturbed sleep or appetite are some of the signs of depression. Consult a psychiatrist who will assess you in detail. If you are feeling suicidal or hopeless, seek professional help immediately. Try some relaxation techniques like yoga, meditation and deep breathing. Indulge in hobbies. Spend time with people close to you.
