See, I have heard about "leaden paralysis", specifically in the context of atypical depression.
You say my description is "text book" but I have always read that leaden paralysis is "a sensation of heaviness in limbs". What I experience is not a heaviness per se, but more a fatigue upon exertion.
I feel like I have heard of this "leaden paralysis" equated to like when your lying on the couch and your limbs feel like they are too heavy to move or get up.
This isn't really what I experience. Maybe my perception of what "leaden paralysis" was is inaccurate and what I experience is indeed leaden paralysis. I'm just trying to clarify.
Thanks for the follow ups and please follow up some more!
