Ok Anthony I am starting to understand it now!
He knows he has to get out of bed, but remember the cup when broken down, he also has these other emotions in there, so what he is thinking without knowing, is I am about to explode, but by laying here in bed it is under control. Why? Because he isn't adding that good stress to his day yet, because his cup is so full of all the negative emotions instead.

So being in bed may be a bit of a security blanket? But as you say he needs to get his butt moving.

Jen, his past is so clouded now that he can't find all the positive emotions within him, instead all he see's is this big negative cloud. It doesn't take much for negatives to outweigh positives, thus self esteem is shot to shit. He can become a very confident person once again, but he has to fight in order

I really hope that confidence comes back you can see in his eyes a real questioning look like am I doing this right? With anything like cooking dinner to any little job?
BUT I must say he seems a little bit better lately still not getting out of bed but his mood seems a bit better so one step at a time.
Anthony thank you for helping me understand what is going on his head!!
Jen
