Stop fighting the feelings. I'm telling you, if you can accept them, you can move forward.
So many times I've felt like not going to the gym. You know what I did to get around it? Accept it, and go anyways.
So I'd be like "I don't want to do this." then I'd answer back: "I know, that's ok."
"There's no point." -> "Yeah I know."
"I feel awful" -> "That's ok, feel how you want."
All the while I was driving to the gym, walking into the place, or even filling my water bottle at the water fountain.
When you accept things, they have no more power over you. You can still move, so to speak.
There is a quote that I love from one of my favorite shows as a kid, "Stargate SG-1", and it goes like this:
"The evil inside me, is too strong to resist. The only way to win, is to deny it battle."
