Struggling with Motivation: Can't Get Anything Done

I get these periods of zero motivation. That's for getting work done, taking a shower, being around my family, etc. But then I will randomly get the urge to want to bake or clean my room. It frustrates me because I wish I could just sit down and do what I need to, but I want to cry every time I try.

These kinds of loops are common and terrible. People don't understand.

I have those too.. when it happens I try to remind myself what my priorities are because I can usually muster enough motivation to knock out a few things like showering, eating, & exercising. One of the hardest parts is the self-isolation - wanting to respond to and be with family and friends but not being able to for what seems like no reason. Hang in there and remember you’re not alone 💕

That's exactly how it is with me but I try to hide it, actually I don't try I do and I'm way too good at it
