Were you taking sort of ADD-type of medication (Ritalin/Adderall/Strattera) during this time or during the “lost” three weeks? This sounds very similar to a situation I was in earlier this year, and while medication was helpful for me, I’m curious if this is the sort of issue that can “creep” back in if you’re not starting fresh (and thus getting the “full kick” due to tolerance or something similar)?
And as a follow up, in the spirit of “what worked for me may not work for anyone else, but I publish it here in the hope that we can pull some good ideas out of it”, as mid-20s adult who has dealt with similar situations with undesirable projects and the like, I would add that it may be helpful to consider talking to a psychiatrist to see if it could be helpful for you again.

I used to take ritalin when I was younger, but I stopped. So no, I had not developed a ritalin-immunity during this time.
Good to know, thanks.
