I'm constantly losing motivation for something that I love.

How do I get motivated for something that I live for? I'm recording for YouTube, after making 3 videos (1 each week) I get lost in my emotions. I lose uplouding rythm and I feel terrible for a few weeks. In those weeks I'm not recording anything, trying to stay alive, not kill myself and find a way to get back on track. I usually succeed. The point is that I'm in the constant loop of loving life and doing everything to make it even better and wanting not to exist. How do I learn to stay productive and not to go one step ahead, one backwards? I already tried to slow down the process, but it's always the same. For some reason YT is something where from I start building my success/happiness and if that's not functioning, nothing is. I gradueted high school before a few months, I'm trying to earn enough money form YT so I don't have to get a "real job". I'm doing great for the fact that I'm inactive. I know that I have a high potential, but I need to find a way to unlock it (stop being emotionally unstable).

@Joseph8e8eue7,
I watch YT a lot and Ive always wondered about some of those unending grueling schedules that the YTers put on themselves to post videos. Is it for love of the subject or to "collect PATREONS"??

Ive seen some really well produced videos and those were well scripted and not many of those that are poorly done seem to bother with scripting.
There is one UK guy, a "David Something" he produces a series called "CRUISING THE CUT. which is a "VLOG" ,well done and quite entertaining (Its all about cruising he UK canals in a NARROWBOAT). H produces his vids like once every other week oor so, no real schedule.

Then there are the others who produce and upload their adventures (or skills) very week or in some cases E VRY TWO DAYS. The ones with the greter frequencies of Vids are, to me, the least interesting because the narrators are not well scripted an they ramble and look rather poor.
However, when the PATREON lists are presented at the ends of ch vid, the more amateurish ones seem to hav garnered the larger share of Patreons (I undertand that Patreon, for a monthly dontion, ill get exclusive information that an adventure or skill can be reproduced by the Donator.

There are some folks who are erning a good living (like David Draws) but I always wonder, at what cost??

Take a break and schedule breaks often but try to be somewhat unpredictable in your schedule. Dont pub a vieo every Friday because you said you would. Mayb take off very third week or more.
Good Luck.
PS, whats the subject of your adventures???

@farmerman,
Thanks for the advice. It's about random pranks in public. I'm really doing it because I love it. Im recording video one day (usually all day in the city) and I'm editing it for about 15h. There are so many positive comments but they don't mean a thing if I cannot sort myself. Channel is 'Perica'. It's on Croatian so you won't understand anything.
