The Spaniard is having a torrid time at the Japanese factory.
He finished a lowly 13th at Mugello on Sunday and is yet to get anywhere near a podium finish.
It’s been a tough 12 months for the experienced star.
He suffered a host of career-threatening injuries towards the end of 2018 and was axed by Ducati.
“MotoGP hero Jorge Lorenzo is struggling this season”
Speculation has been rife that Honda are now ready to cut Lorenzo loose following his failure to push Marc Marquez.
The Spaniard admits he’s finding it hard to keep going given the difficult circumstances.
“It's not easy, but I have not turned to a psychologist,” he told Tuttosport.
“How do I get my job done? My brain and my experience help me, but it's very hard because this is a job that requires a lot of discipline.
“And, after 17 years, is not easy motivate yourself without results.
“They are what give you a smile and the desire to continue working."

Marquez, meanwhile, continues to go from strength to strength.
He couldn’t secure glory in Italy, but put in an accomplished performance.
Ducati ace Danilo Petrucci stunned the MotoGP elite and grabbed his fist ever Grand Prix win in Tuscany.
"On the last lap I was more concerned about defending than attacking," Marquez said in the aftermath.
"I was attacking, but I knew it would not happen in the braking.
"If it could have not thrown me as I always do, that we both go a little bit to turn off.
"But I knew if Dovizioso won, it did not suit me.
"I said: 'We defend and we see in the last corner to see what happens, we came with a four point advantage and we go with eight.'"
