i feel that way all the time.. really, sometimes it takes me a couple days maybe more to start a project (dishes, laundry , whatever)...
but the only advice i can offer you is .. well let me start by saying there is nothing wrong with you.. well maybe just that people like us , our spark plugs dont fire properly so sometimes our motor just wont run..

u are ok...

once i finally get to the task i want to complete ... and its done ( even if i hmm an haw and bitch the whole time im doing it) God does it feel so good to see my kitchen clean, to see my clothes all hanging neatly in my closet intstead of a heap on my floor..

i just made my bed a little while ago, and even added one of those things that goes on the box springs with ruffles, dust ruffle i think its called.. then made it, i feel accomplished .

i tooo have a ton of laundry to do, but my son seems to have lost my laundry card with the funds on it.........sooooo , i cant yet but boy i want to!

and i also have to sweep and mop my bedroom floor.. been putting it ofrf a long time already,

there are so many more of us that feel the same as u and go through the same thing..
dont be too hard on your self
turn on some good motivating tunes, and get to seperating !

hugs !

I can't relate, but I can sympathize with your situation.

The dreary, cold. overcast skies can stay gone. Hope you find a solution
so you can enjoy the outdoors. Sunglasses help :)

You're not dead on the inside. You wouldn't worry or feel this anxiety if you were dead on the inside. I think you're just having a hard time getting motivated and staying motivated.

I believe but am not diagnosing you, that you may have agoraphobia. I have had it on and off for the past 5 years. It's very scary. Everything outside causes stress and anxiety,, especially the noise. The chore of what you have to do isn't what is bothering you as much as it is to have to go outside in order to do it. You are not alone in your fears. Have you talked to your doctor about an anxiety medication? Hugs GB

I am borderline agoraphobic. I hate having to go out to do anything.
I wear the same clothes for MONTHS so I don't have to do laundry.
Going to the doctor is hell. Sitting with all those people in the waiting
room is torture. I live in very sunny Las Vegas and I hate the sun.
It's so bright outside all I want to do is hide. So I know how you feel.

You need to make a simple goal of going around the block once a day then build your way up from there other wise it will continue to get worse.

I feel like I wrote this...it sucks. I feel like I'm a failure

It is curable though I hope we both get there

day to day tasks are too hard for me, too. So I do understand. And I would have to agree that it sounds like agoraphobia to me too. I have similar issues myself such as fear of crowded places like churches. Can you get someone you feel safe with to go with you to do the laundry? That might help.

Sounds like me, except I do have a washer and dryer and don't have to go to the laundromat My daughter thinks I am agoraphobic. .

Darn, now you reminded me that I have to go fold, dry and wash loads of clothes. They never end.
