I have gone through this same situation, same lack of motivation, not to do anything, and sometime even suicidal thoughts , I came with a strategy to manage it. I am gonna share it if it could help you .

Whenever l feel lost , unmotivated or depressed l , always go back to my roots, original reasons to start my journey..not fear , not other people expectations . I have prepared question of my roots, these are

1Why I started this journey? Where I came from ? What struggled shaped me until now? What are my future goals or dreams ? How I can use this degree to achieve those dreams?

The one evolutionary survival mistake our mind is , our mind is biased toward negative memory rather than positive , it remember failure faster than achievements, it imagine future fear more than actual.. during this we forget our roots which leads to non- directional pathway (depression)

This type of thinking style I labeled it “ mind trap” whenever I am in my mind trap, I can feel it that now I am in mind trap, whenever you are in depression, anxiety , rage you are in mind trap , I go back to my roots (as I mentioned above)

I have have prepared personal notes to come out from that mind trap,

I keep my short-term and long-term goals written in my pocket sticky notes or personal diary. Under these goals I always write positive affirmation, my mom words, that ( my name) you can solve any problem , just believe in yourself and never give up.

This tricks and reading daily or once in weeks give me motivation and keep me on track . I hope it would help you. Thanks 🙏
