Recently I feel like I'm working, sleeping, or waiting for work to start. I hate it, I can't figure out how to break this waiting mode. Does anyone have any advise?

EDIT: That ADHD moment where you see loads of people have given great advice, but there's so much it's overwhelming! Thank you all, I'll try and go through and implement what I can

You have to forcibly carve out time for yourself. Even if it's just an hour before bed or in the morning. Create some rituals you enjoy. Making a nice breakfast, maybe. Reading before bed, playing a game, drawing, making music. For me, I usually play/record music and/or work on a book project, chipping away little by little. It's nice to have those other things to look forward to.
