To be content doing nothing because I don't care is not a good feeling. I can see where me using the word, content, is misleading. It's a feeling of complete apathy. Apathy is somewhat relaxing, but I've never, ever enjoyed feeling apathetic. If you ever went to your vehicle and the engine just wouldn't turn over, that's the feeling. All of a sudden, you're not going anywhere.

It's about 5 p.m. I got out of bed at 4:30 p.m. because, suddenly, I just didn't feel so bad. I had a cup of coffee. I feel up to taking a shower now, which is a breakthrough. Then I want to straighten up my place. For the past 2 days, I haven't washed a dish. I hate when my apartment gets messy. It's a comfy place when I stay on top of things.

If I restore some order, I'll feel much better.

@divine1966 - Yes, small goals for this evening are the way to go. Right now I'm thrilled that I don't feel like going back to bed. That's all I did all day.

This "episode" or "tailspin" might be winding down. Once I get out of a tailspin, it's amazing how good I can feel.

Thank you all for every post above.
