Hi Max,

Fear and depression are yin. Lethargy is yin. A body that always feels cold is yin. How old are you, as this is a very listless state to be in for a young person. When you learn more about macrobiotics, you can balance your condition with foods that will give you more yang energy. Then, your body will have heat and active energy. You will have the confidence and mental clarity to get out in life and do more. Life is for living, not for curling up under blankets, whatever your age.

I would suggest a basic macrobiotic book that details lifestyle, cooking, and exercise, like The Macrobiotic Way, by Michio Kushi. That's a start.
