Are you actually procrastinating? Procrastination is when you consciously decide to delay some work. Perhaps you are unmotivated or burnt out? "Just get started" is good advice sometimes, but in your case it sounds like you're burnt out, in which case you can't get started so easily. Rather than doing brain hacks or productivity "tips", try doing _less_. Instead of aiming for massive bursts of productivity, try doing a tiny bit at a time. If you miss a day, who cares. You are under no productivity "debt". You're studying and learning, these are creative processes that have a daily limit. Finally, a sustainable level of motivation should feel like you're "kind of hungry", not that you're obsessed. I have ADHD, and sometimes I fool myself into thinking I'm no longer "passionate" about something because I'm no longer in a hyperfocus phase. In reality, healthy long-term productivity is much less extreme than obsessive hyperfocus.
