People who spend long periods of time at home and slowly lose the desire to go outside always think they're just “resting”.
Psychologically, most of them are experiencing something called mental masturbation.
It's a state where the brain starts slowing down while the number of thoughts inside keeps increasing and the motivation to do anything slowly disappears.
Their mind gets stuck in the past, worries about the future and burns itself out.
Their nervous system is perpetually stuck on survival mode.
The longer it lasts, the more distant normal life begins to feel.
Sucks because they usually can't escape it through one huge burst of motivation.
And sometimes, recovery starts with just one small step to touch some grass.
