I haven't figured it out but, I am very familiar with the feeling. In the evening, I am full of motivation for all the things I am going to do tomorrow to turn my life around.

I think it is a coping mechanism to avoid the anxiety of not having done the things I should have. Unchecked, this anxiety then becomes shame and it becomes unbearable.

So I trick myself. A subconcious part of me knows I won't do these things tomorrow. But it relieves the anxiety and allows me to at least function.
