Fish Accessories Aquarium

Why is my goldfish not swimming around?
I have a five gallon aquarium with a filter and only one fish in it right now (the other one died after a few days of bringing him home). I feed my fish a pinch of food every 12 hours. For the past week or so, she has been very lethargic, just laying around at the bottom of the tank. She will still eat and swims around like crazy when I feed her, but then goes back to just chilling. When I get close to the tank and talk to her she will swim around a little. Is she dying? Or maybe lonely? Can fish get lonely? I have been meaning to get her a friend, but will that stress her out more? Help please! And don’t tell me that she is a replaceable fish, just to flush her. She was a present and I spent a lot on the tank and accessories and don’t want her to die.
The tank is too small. Goldfish need 10-12 gallons all to themselves. Doesn’t matter that you filter the water. It has to do with oxygen exchange.
Also, they need cold water. If you have a heater, shut it off.
Mostly, you just need a bigger tank.
