If I’m not doing stuff all the time I’m sad

If I am not doing anything and by the end of the day I haven’t left the house all day i feel worthless and so down. But I can’t always push myself to go out and do something either! It’s a battle, does anyone else have this?! I love the idea of going out coming back having tea putting baby to bed and chilling but today is a hard day. I physically can’t get out of my PJs and I feel so tired. I also don’t drive either so I have to rely on public transport or just walking and the weather is rubbish which does not help.

I literally feel like I’ve wrote this I’m exactly the same 😩 Xxx

@Claire Louise it’s so frustrating isn’t it! I wonder what it’s all about. Think I just need to live in Australia or something imagine the daily walks in the sun 🤩

I understand where you’re coming from. I keep myself busy to keep sane! When I’m sitting at home doing nothing, I’m drowning in thought and I go crazy. Today was a good day I managed to go out and my baby understood the mission to let me have a positive day. It makes a difference when they’re calm or asleep to let you get on with things. At home in my free time, I’m in the kitchen, exploring new things to make, it is rewarding when you can add new dishes to your culinary skills and it tastes good, it’s that or I’m binge watching tv! Of course you’ve got bottles to wash clothes to clean. Sometimes I dress up and put make up on. When you look good, you feel good.

I get it! Currently the thought of using public transport with my baby is terrifying. I have to do it for a few hours soon, so I want to trial a short trip, but the anxiety is real! It’s such a mental battle - looks like nothing is happening on the outside, but inside, it’s chaos 😅
