I think...
I suffer from a form of this. Lack of motivation, although it sounds as though it may be a result of social anxiety for you?
I am selectively motivated and it really differs from those around me, but, if it works for me (not sure it does as of yet) then so what. Maybe you could try to find a balance, like Dinah suggested, couples therapy might be useful. But don't be hard on yourself for not being like others! Sleep is important! Your baby is still young too, you are still adjusting I bet. From wha tI read, it sounds like maybe sleeping medication is worth a try? when are sleep cycles are out of whack it can really make us feel spaced out during the day. I too wake slowly, really slowly. But I have noticed that if I go to sleep at a reasonalble hour and I sleep through the night whether it be because of sleeping aids or natural the next day is easier. Obviously a baby changes your flexibilty with sleep options, but Id talk to a doctor about medications.
Good luck
