It's about despair and giving up. The listlessness of the "in-between" the event and the recovery. The withdrawal from the world in an attempt to stop the hurt.
It's about a situation where no matter how hard you wished for things to change, there is nothing you can do that will make it better, short of a miracle. Where you stop struggling to stay afloat and let yourself sink.
It's about grief so deep you can't even imagine how things can ever get better after it. Even if it does, you'll never trust the world in the same way again.
You can't escape it, you can't beat it, and you're not quite ready to die yet, so you really have no choice but to wait it out.
