macOS randomly freezing - it just never stops

I can't take this constant freeze, start, freeze, start, - and repeat. Who do I have to bribe to make this just go away?

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 10.14

There's too little information here to be able to give any real help as it could be a software or hardware problem, but there are a couple of places you could start.


Run Activity Monitor and look at the CPU tab to see if any process is using a very high percentage of CPU and/or is marked as "not responding" (which may appear intermittently).


Download and run EtreCheck to see if the report includes information on problems which could affect performance.


Both of these may take some time if your Mac is not running well.
