What am I supposed to do at this point? [Unmotivation]

At this point I don't know how to explain it. I'm already overwhelmed with what I need to do and I understand that it's important but I feel numb. I feel numb whenever I do anything: play, work, chat, etc and yet at some points all my emotions just.. *burst*. Yet after that I'm more numb and I want to fix things I can't. Any advice? I don't want people I don't know to chat with about my feelings, I barely trust anyone, and yes I understand that talking about feelings helped to others but the multiple times I done it it only made me feel worse about talking of it.
It’s okay to feel overwhelmed and numb—it’s your mind’s way of coping with too much at once. Instead of trying to fix everything, focus on small steps like grounding yourself through breathing or writing down what’s on your mind. Prioritize one manageable task to regain a sense of control. If sharing your feelings hasn’t helped before, try solo methods like journaling, creative activities, or gentle movement to process emotions. Treat yourself with understanding—this is hard, but you’re doing your best. Consider seeking professional support when you’re ready; it can provide guidance tailored to you. Take it one step at a time.
