Recently I feel like I'm working, sleeping, or waiting for work to start. I hate it, I can't figure out how to break this waiting mode. Does anyone have any advise?

EDIT: That ADHD moment where you see loads of people have given great advice, but there's so much it's overwhelming! Thank you all, I'll try and go through and implement what I can

I find it's helpful to set alarms. So let's say I work at 2PM. If I need an hour to get ready and make it to work on time I'll set an alarm for 1PM. My brain then knows I don't need to think or worry about getting ready until the alarm goes off and I'm much more productive with my time beforehand.
