The Doldrums is a place within the lands beyond the tollbooth. It is where Lethargians live and do nothing all day. People who don't think and/or don't pay attention often get stuck there. It is a cloudy place in the countryside which has hardly any trees or flowers.The grass is not very brightly coloured. There is no wind and the birds sing only boring songs (in the film, it is a disgusting-looking place where the ground and several rocky spires are covered in greenish-yellow slime and the Lethargians are its only inhabitants). Nothing ever changes. To get out of the Doldrums, one must think. To be more specific, we call it daydreaming.
In the 1970 Chuck Jones movie, the Doldrums is portrayed as a dark swamp filled with slight green slime which covers the ground and trees.
