No motivation to tidy at all

Hi all, hope you are ok.
I have been a massive rut for months now regarding my house, I've labelled this as mental health as that is something I battle with, but honestly I don't even know if this rut is due to that, or just that I've genuinely become a lazy slob when it comes to keeping my house in order.
I can't find any pride in my house anymore, clothes washing being the biggest task, i never used to be this bad. I don't know if it's because of the pandemic and being too used to being inside all the time that I've fallen out of love with my house and the mundane tasks of cleaning? I seriously need to find some pride again but I just can't bring myself to do it. Is there any way to fall in love with tidying again?! I mean, I never was "in love" with it but it definitely didn't offend me as much as it does now! I genuinely hate doing it and constantly do a half arsed job.
Any advice? X

There's some good advice on housekeeping in this thread, from @SingToTheSky and @BamberGascoine especially:
