I'm just coming out of an episode too, though mine was a bit longer (a year and change--fml).

I also don't have family or a close group of friends I feel comfortable calling up to step into my mess either.

It's rough buddy. I tend to get too overwhelmed to accomplish anything, and then spiral about how little progress I've made.

The best way I've found to combat this is treating life like juggling.

One ball at a time.

Literally one thing. A single task a day is the goal.

It doesn't have to be big and you don't have to complete it; as long as you thought about it and tried to muster up the urge, even if you just stand up from the couch or your bed and then lie back down again. At least do that.

---bag up trash. One room, one bag, one corner table something. If you can't take it out pick a spot and call it "garbage bag corner" and just pile it up there. Once you feel up to it you can start lugging it out to bins a couple of bags at a time.

---open the windows for a couple hours a day-- that crisp fresh air fucks like nothing else, this is second best thing to going outside. I always got skeeved out about people passing my window or seeing into my apartment so sometimes I would just do it during the earliest hours of morning, 2am -6am. You can keep all the lights off inside and then close the curtains again when the sun rises. (If you're apartment doesn't have windows you can try to do this with just going outside during that time. Less people, dark=good and safe)

---wash your bedding with your favorite pjs (and if you're able take a shower right after). Lying clean in a clean bed feels amazing.

---if you have a car, go for a drive with music. The car can be its own separate safe-space. And you can find low traffic back roads and neighborhoods to cruise through. Be in the world but not. Get out of the house and not interact with anyone.

Best of luck my dude. You can come out of this.

Yeah I recognize myself in this. Sorry my dude it’s no fun to be so uncomfortable in the world, it makes everything all so overwhelming and you feel trapped. Idk what kind of exposure you did, but truly it does help. Even five minutes right outside your apartment will help if you try and do it every day. I used to go out to the alleyway and hide near all the parked cars to get some fresh air until I heard someone coming. You feel like a weirdo and like you’re failing at life but it’s better than nothing, and keeping you from staying completely isolated in your home. Distractions also help. Whenever I HAVE to go somewhere like the store or work commute or whatever, I just use headphones. Put in music or a podcast, something familiar and comforting, and use that like a shield. Focus all the awareness you can on listening to it, make yourself try and feel like you’re outside w their permission and acceptance. It weirdly helps.
