I feel the same, burnt out and overcomitted. Please don't give up though, it's a bondage but also a great skill.

In the long term though, it means we get a bigger picture, more adaptabilty and life experience. Maybe the best tips for tackling the lack of focus are To-Do lists and setting SMART goals and allowing more time to get things done (where we can allo for some procrastination and creativity too). And you know about making stupid decisions, this is how to learn. To tackle self hating, notice the thought patterns as they come and say to yourself again and again 'I am worthy of love and belonging. I am perfect with all of my flaws' - mega awkward and cringy, over time it cuts through the negative thinking and you start to get positive patterns happening too.
