The main issue is switching from a high dopamine source to a low one, my brain just doesn't want to do. So I need to break the spell. Let's try some of these options.

Move your body/exercise.

• this generates dopamine, I'll feel better for it. Use that boost as a spring board into tasks that I actually need to do

Change my environment

• Go to a public place to work, or get outdoors. Change things up.

Shift to 'low dopamine' transition tasks

• Do dome mindless, but physical chore, doesn't have to be long. But get moving. and use that to transition.
