The way he tells it, the attempt to find the emotional energy is 'trying'.


he's being a baby. or, best case, a teenager.

Teenagers dont do laundry/homework/cleanup/take out trash, because "i dont feel like it".

Adults say, "this needs to be done. so, i'm going to do it".

Dont accept his 'emotional energy' garbage. "call him on it, next time it comes up.

It's not about muscling up enough feelings to do stuff.. it's about DOING stuff, to GET BACK feelings!
