borsst

A psychological state characterized by the coexistence of mild stress and apathetic boredom, often experienced when one is aware of an impending workload or future consequences but lacks the motivation to act. The individual feels the weight of responsibility without the urgency to respond, consciously recognizing their own inaction.
“I’ve got six overdue tasks and three meetings tomorrow, but I’ve been lying on the couch for two hours just scrolling—definitely feeling borsst.”

“She was borsst all weekend—aware of the chaos waiting at work but too uninterested to start preparing.”

“There’s a strange comfort in being borsst: knowing the storm is coming, and yet choosing not to build a shelter.”
