I cannot say much about being a freelance worker, but I can say without a schedule and structure in my life, I am screwed. I need to have a structure and even with the structure I go through cycles. I believe that it is my structure, tools, and knowledge that allows me to work through my mood changes. I make sure I get moving at six every morning. Even weekends. I follow a set time structure each day. Hope you find a beneficial path that works for you. I will state that I do have stress at work which does send me into tail spin at times, but I can manage to work through it. Welcome.
