So I was still getting distracted by some personal stuff from time to time but have now found a very neurodivergent solution to it that works.
I remembered this post I once read on reddit about an neurodivergent woman who would thank the machines in her house after using them.
So whenever I have distracting thoughts now, I tell my mind," Please not right now. I have to focus on this other thing right now. For some reason this has seen a doubling or tripling in how fast unwanted thoughts go away." I speak to my mind as if it's an external entity that I require things from and that seems to help further improve communication and cooperation.
Let's see if it keeps working today and tomorrow and the days to come.
I am also getting good at not being overcome by hunger.
I am still terrible at handling cold.
How do you wake up early during a cold day? What's the trick?
I have gotten better at pushing myself to perform tasks. The internal seed message is working for now.
I just need to double down one more time and I should be out of my hole finally by the end of the month.
Good luck to you and good luck to me.

depending on your thermal insulation it may be possible to preheat the water before falling to sleep
you can also keep a mobile radiator close to bed and place on top of it (without blocking it obviously) the clothes you are going to wear, that way you can heat your clothes before getting out of bed

Nice advice but I found an even lazier solution I am writing a post about in 10 minutes.
