So why do I not care about anything. Like I feel fine and I have recently learned to love myself. But beyond me i dont care. I can't make myself care. I say im sorry when someone brings up an issue they are having but i dont care. My brother was injured in a car accident and I couldnt care less. It is affecting my family but I dont care!!! Just wondering if this is still depression or my schizophrenia. I mean I don't care either way but im tired of getting into arguments because i dont care. It's too much work.

Tough to say whether it's caused by depression or schizophrenia, since apathy can be caused by both. Other than not caring, do you feel depressed/sad/lonely/guilty/hopeless? Is your sleep off? Any changes in appetite? suicidal thoughts? If so, I think it's safe to say you've got some depression going on too. If you're still confused, try looking up the negative symptoms of schizophrenia and the symptoms of depression and seeing if you relate to one more than the other (although keep in mind it could be both).

Yeah it could be either. I know that sometimes I have a hard time when it comes to caring about things- most people do. I have to really do some serious self motivating just for the simplest of things.
Try telling yourself how important something is for you in the long run. It helps me do things even when I really really dont want to. Just not giving myself that option |

This is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.|
