From a science perspective only meds really work for “treatment” but if you’re looking to simply make some sense of the chaos and not actually treat your symptoms there’s lots of options. My mantra is simply “motivation isn’t required” when I need to do something, being a parent really forced me to face this head on because just opting out on your kids because “you don’t feel like it” isn’t an option to good parents and the more you push through the easier it gets, in my experience, for me it was more about building discomfort tolerance than anything
