Its normal to feel like this.......nothing strange. Do one thing, have a good sleep tonight....dnt be stressed out. Wake up early tomorrow morning, take out any book of your choice, be it laxmikant, spectrum, shankar, singhania or any other book and read it, read good amount of chapters without thinking something else or worrying. You WILL feel good when you would be done with that and will study more. Dont think, Just do. UPSC CSE gives you the luxury to read diverse things, when you dont feel like studying any particular subject, you could choose to study another topic for short time and then back to your schedule again. ALL the very best.

Join SFG programme of forumIAS, everything will be fine. They will insure that you clear Prelims. I was in same state a month back.
You won't regret this decision. Registration is open, go ahead. You still have 120+ days.
Moreover, go for running in park and visit places alone or with some friends on weekends.

True that. To add to this:

- Set short but achievable targets, don't go for the kill.
- Talk to the ones who motivate you, friends, parents, etc
- Watch motivational videos, especially of past years toppers. Or insightsonindia motivation section
- Solve Pre tests frequent. Target improving your score in successive tests.

Periodically through the preparation, we lose momentum, it's normal. Hobby, jogging, yoga, meditation, few games of badminton (in Sindhi park) - do take such breaks (but do not prolong them).

Best wishes! And yeah, JUST DO IT.
