I’m currently preparing for exams which are very important to me. Some days I can work for 6 hours or more without stopping and I get loads done and feel great about it. Unfortunately some days I get up and I can’t bear to work.
On bad days, I feel like I can’t focus on anything, and no matter how much it stresses me out, my brain just refuses to put any effort in. I have no motivation and just feel like going to sleep or giving up and doing something to waste time.
Generally I find if I work a lot one day the next day is more likely to be a bad day.
Does anyone else have this? How do you prevent this or at least cope with it?
I think sleep could be a big part of it, I’ve always struggled to maintain any kind of sleep schedule. I don’t think I suffer from any severe mental health problems as I’m fairly functional in day-to-day life.
