I think of it as some kind of pseudomasochism, since five minutes after getting
out of bed I start feeling better.

Any ideas that can help?. Is this the worst time of the day for you too?.
When I'm really depressed, that's how I wake up too every day. If I'm just kind of stressed, I wake up that way sometimes. Frequent advice is just to force yourself out of bed, it will get better. I haven't gotten that far but I have gotten used to it - that it's a feeling I know is going to go away because it's so predictable and shortlived so I try not to pay too much attention to it.
Thanks for this!
