I'm sure this has been shouted high to the heavens, but how do you guys work through it? I go through major bursts of productivity and then I crash as hard as I worked.

I've been working through it with my therapist, but I'm curious if you guys have ways to prevent it from happening. I think being mindful that it's happening helps, but then I feel guilty that I'm not going 110% like days prior.
