I get sick quite often which is another topic for another day. I had been healthy for about 4 months but I developed something minor the other week. I fully recovered after a week of resting and taking it easy but now I’m back into bed again and out of routine.
I wake up everyday and drag myself out of bed to my desk for my morning meetings and then I find myself crawling back into bed.
I spend hours scrolling online and while I know I shouldn’t be doing this and focusing on my work, tasks, chores, etc. I don’t have the drive to do it.
I have a fairly autonomous job where I should be driving projects and doing my own research but I end up doing the bare minimum last minute and not achieving anything further.
I’m alone without (m)any close friends/family to rely on and while I’ve learned to live with it, I tend to fall off the habit so often.
I’ve tried all the tricks like keeping the phone away, making the bed, etc. etc.
SAD and the weather certainly doesn’t help but I still have shit to do and need help.
Any tips would be tremendously appreciated.
