I'm older (62 m) and have been dealing with this since I was a teen, its brutal and gotten worse the older I got. I used to be able to do things by forcing myself, sheer determination. The older I got, the harder that got.
I'm at the point now where I can do like one thing a day, and I'm done. Being a parent while constantly exhausted was the worst.
So interesting to read all these comments and suggestions, gives me hope that perhaps I can be a bit more productive and less negative at the same time.

Wow. Hello brother from another mother, Lol.
No real advice. The struggle is real. I'm reading these comments and advice and its blowing my mind. Gives me some hope.
Good luck in your journey, I hope you find the relief that you so rightly deserve.

Congrats! Very cool.
Your next book should be a book on how you wrote and self published your first book.
Then your third book should be a book on how you wrote your second book.
Etc, etc.
You're welcome!
