Wow, I couldn’t imagine. The only times I don’t leave the house on a daily basis are when I’m sick (and even then, unless I’m REALLY sick I try to at least go for a walk to get some fresh air or walk to the pharmacy if I need to pick up medicine). And very very rarely on a lazy Sunday when I’m home alone and get the chance to do nothing but sewing all day. But that happens maybe once a year.

I just feel really bad and lazy and unhealthy when I stay in all day.

It’s amazing how different everyone is. I can’t imagine feeling the need to go out every day. It feels - to me- just full of anxiety and pressure and stress to always be on and busy. I’d feel like I was having to prove something to someone allllll the time.  I do know a couple people like you though. Different strokes for different folks I suppose. The problem of course comes in if one partner needs to be always going out and the other always staying in and they can’t work out a way to be comfortable with those differences. Or worse, you are a whole high energy do all the activities and sports and outside things family - but one child would rather stay home reading a book or playing a game. Or vise versa. When I had young kids and work I absolutely lived for lazy , never leave the house or bother to get dressed, or do a damned thing  days. 

In Joy's Q+A video, she mentioned a counselor. Has she mentioned that ever before? I admit I don't watch her YouTube often.

It seems like a lot of pastors like to weaponize mental illness to their own benefit.

Yeah, they donʻt believe it exists until they need a divorce.

I'm guessing Jessa goes outside and she may even take the kids on a walk.  I think she's talking about going out to a store, coffee shop, mall, etc. for which she likely has to drive.  Staying home more can also be a factor of getting older and not needing an outing every day.  I do think five young children is the biggest factor.  

Alligator rhythms are doing it!!  They need to watch those berries, too.  Nefarious they are.  They've over reached and people are no longer willing to support the con.  To me that's what they've devolved to is trying to run a scam.
