This is the freeze response. It’s a fear thing.

To some people this may be obvious, but for decades I had no idea that my “laziness” was an expression of anxiety.

Obviously it’s not easy to resolve anxiety, but at least understanding what was happening helped me move toward more consistent freedom of engagement with life.

That depends on the person. I'm autistic and for me it's just a moment to minimise stimuli and recharge a little bit. No fear involved, just a little overstimulated and in need of a reset.
