Is there something wrong with me?
Does anyone else experience something like this?
I feel like I have a weird cycle where, for around 6 months, I become extremely locked in. I train Muay Thai consistently, work out, study, work on myself, keep a routine, eat properly, and basically try to do everything right. I’m disciplined, motivated and genuinely enjoy pushing myself.
Then at some point it completely flips.
I can spend months where I have basically zero motivation for anything. I barely want to leave my bed, I sleep through huge parts of the day, I stop training, stop being productive and just don’t feel like doing anything. Even things I normally love, like Muay Thai, feel impossible to get myself to do.
The difference between these two periods is honestly huge, and it’s been really difficult for me because it feels like I’m either extremely driven or completely shut down.
I’m not trying to self-diagnose myself. I’m genuinely wondering if anyone else experiences this kind of cycle, especially people who are normally very active and disciplined.
