Does anyone ever feel like it’s to much? Sometimes I don’t even feel like caring about my weight/ health. Life gets heavy and busy.

Yes -I have experienced this at times. Sometimes you can also get stuck in that rut for a long time, but in the end you know what a better place to be is, so try your best to push past those feelings as best as you can.2

I don't know your situation or what methods you're using to get to your goal, but I can share what I've been doing that I think is helping me.
This wasn't my plan, but for about 5 months now I've just ate maintenance calories. MFP has this option in the goal settings. It's not ideal, goal-wise, but it's allowed me some breathing room to reassess some things until I can stop being the obstacle, and it has been an interesting learning experience for when I eventually get to goal and have to maintain anyway.
I recently saw these two threads, maybe helpful to you.

I hope things get better for you soon.2 -
For me, putting a priority on making weight management easy (rather than fast) was a help. When I had bursts of energy, motivation or enthusiasm, I would look for new habits that would be doable and positive, then practiced them until they could run pretty much on autopilot. In times when I have less energy or willpower, I can fall back on those habits and just try to maintain there.2
