Patrick, I find that fasting is a great way to prevent oneself from falling into this spiral. Being in a fasted state helps promote mental focus and, ironically, more physical energy.

Granted, this is more about preventing oneself from falling into the spiral than getting out of it. If you fast daily on a 20:4 regimen, you will spend most of the day in a productive state.
