Vandelay
Life is absurd. Lean into it.
This what I used to hit my family or friends with. It's just different. It is some of those things you mention. Problem is... You don't care. It doesn't make sense, and a lot of times you know it doesn't make sense. You just don't have the motivation for lack of a better word to do what logically makes sense. I'm fortunate when I go through my episodes I still can make logical sense of things. Some people can't.To be honest, it's a fair question from someone that doesn't experience it, it's hard to relate to it.
Are you eating well or at all?
Are you getting out of the bed?
Have you taken a walk?
Have you showered?
... Have you taken meds if you have a prescription?
Make your bed. If you stop there at least you accomplished one thing during the day. Build on it. Maybe with those things above.
I have to go on a preset pattern of things that physically raise my mood. But sometimes at my worse, I can't even muster the energy to do what I know will make me feel better physically and mentally.
