Psychology says people who wear unkempt clothes at home aren't lazy or depressed: What this behaviour may mean?

Psychology says people who wear unkempt clothes at home aren't lazy or depressed. Wearing old, loose or worn clothes can be linked to physical comfort, reduced social pressure and a need to separate private life from public roles. At home, people may stop thinking about appearance and allow themselves to rest. This behaviour alone does not indicate poor mental health or lack of discipline.
