Sounds like a plausible theory that you lost motivation because you pushed yourself too hard. I’d also pay attention to “dumber” reasons like maybe you had more motivation from supervisors/social environment/more achievable goals in the past.
Similar to my call to take a vacation, maybe it’s worth it for you to only do motivating work (like a side project) for 1.5 weeks and see if the tiredness disappears.
All of this with the caveat that you understand your situation a lot better than I do ofc!
Thanks Max!
