Anyone else just feeling this flat uninspired way yet at the same time feel restless and can’t relax !
nothing to complain about in life just seem to get like this and worse as the day goes on. I’m 55 on hrt which has helped the mood/ anxiety, suffer with ocd and have had counselling but just find it hard to “just be” I fill my time to avoid being in my own and thinking too much.
sometimes the flatness makes my limbs feel heavy and make me physically exhausted.
anyone else ? I have a lovely husband and two lovely DS at uni but I just feel - meh - it’s another day / same old …

I have another day at home today. Trying to be a bit more productive but feel panicky when I think about returning to work.
Can't make plans for the future - it's made me realise how much time I spend in my head looking at the future.
