>>2330283what worked for me was learning to enjoy challenges. getting up and going to work does suck, but im lucky enough to have a job that feels like i'm helping people and at the end of the day vegging out at my pc feels like a reward.
as far as feeding yourself, taking care of yourself, stuff like that-its fine to take shortcuts. I eat a lot of microwave meals, use dry shampoo and body wipes when i dont have energy to bathe, stuff like that.
having bigger things to look forward to helps a lot too. I dont necessarily want to work my 10 hour shift (sometimes it still feels like stabbing myself in the brain), but I do want to go to cons and cosplay with my friends and having that reward to look forward to kinda makes it worth it.
if you want practical advice maybe try a time audit? for a few days track how you spend your time. this helped me find places where i could carve off a few minutes that I wouldnt really miss to do stuff that's piling up. literally like 'okay i gamed for 6 hours so i could game for 5 hours and 45 minutes and spend 15 cleaning my room'. acknowledging small victories helps too. if you struggle with eating healthy but you had fruit instead of crisps that counts as a victory!
setting routines for the day and spending time outside helped me too. Routines give me structure i can lean on and time in nature does something or another to my body and brain that makes it work better? I have no clue but it helps with wanting to be alive.
