Yeah, I definitely get the idea of guilting yourself over not doing enough. It's really easy for me to turn even fun into "another thing I have to do and am not good enough at," rather than, you know, FUN. It's a silly cycle, and very destructive on top of that.
I tend to be most sane when I'm able to let all that go and live by the motto "Celebrate Progress." Sometimes it feels a little silly going, "Yay, I went grocery shopping and went to the motherf***ing bank like an adult!" or "I applied to one job; good for me!" But the alternative is wallowing in depression and getting even LESS done.

And yes, get some sleep, for goodness' sake.
