First I hear you and understand what you are saying. It does not make you a bad or terrible person. Working all day and then trying to schedule something can be difficult, especially if you feel stressed and tired to begin with. I know for me, even not working you can feel stress and exhaustion just from how you feel.

I used to not go out because I felt that way. I have been making myself do things and usually when I get to where I am going----I usually can feel some relief and start to enjoy myself. But at other times, it is just impossible to do. It is not a bad thing.

You have to take care of you and do what you feel is possible at that time. If you need to just rest and take care of yourself then that is okay. That is self care and we all need to sometimes do more of that.

I can hear what you are saying and I am listening. Please don't be hard on yourself. Do what you feel you can do and know that you are making the best decision for yourself. I know the stress that work and family can make on you.

I am glad that you posted and talked about how you are feeling. That is important as you are taking care of yourself. Please know that we care and are here for you. Be proud of yourself for taking care of you.
