I have the same problem, and have had some success in dealing...a change in meds has helped some. I have also tried to keep in mind that when I have let so much BUILD UP, I can't do it all. So I just pick little jobs, like doing the dishes, and allow myself to do that and stop. If sweeping the floor is going to make me cry, I let that go until tomorrow. Thing is to do one little thing every day. Sounds childish, huh? But when you are wearing cement gloves and shoes, that is about the best you can do. It doesn't seem to be motivation I don't have, but rather the inability to act on the things I know need to be done. That includes enjoying myself. Sometimes this stuff is so hard. Thanks.
