Overcast: Plans to go out today, i would rather sleep. Already anxious and sad.
@Gettingbettertoday Hey there. Saturday was a cloudy, overcast day at my house, too. Isn't it funny how the weather can match our mood, or make us feel more sunny or rainy, depending on what it looks like outside?
What makes you feel energized and ready to face the day? What would make you want to jump out of bed in the morning? For me, it might be something delicious to eat or drink, or something I am really looking forward to doing that day.
I really hope that today is a more sunshine-y day for you! -Purple

I could sleep all day if I allowed it. I have not gotten to the place where I can look forward to things.
@Gettingbettertoday - I have also been known to use sleep as a coping mechanism, or a way to avoid things. However, I have learned that too much sleep can make me feel worse, not better, about myself or the situation I was trying to avoid.
I'm sorry you are not able to look forward to anything right now.
Do you have any goals for yourself, that you are working on?
@purplelady568
I have not had any goals since 2019.
@Gettingbettertoday oh, it sounds like 2019 was a rough year for you. And then in 2020, the pandemic happened... Maybe this week, you could think of a goal for yourself. What would you like to do?
