College student that has lost all motivation needs help and advice [Text]
Hi everyone, I’m a college student that was doing very very well. I’m at a really good school and have a part time internship. For the first couple months I was so on track to get As in all my classes and they were all hard classes and I was going to the gym and I really loved my busy lifestyle. Then things started to take a turn. I started to watch more YouTube, eat unhealthy foods, and not go to the gym as much. Later I started skipping homework’s and just not trying as hard. Then I stopped showing up to my internship, stopped going to class, and stopped going to office hours as I was getting overwhelmed a bit, but at this point I was still doing the bare minimum. Right before break I started hooking up with my ex again because I live alone and just wanted to be with someone. Now we are back together but I’m just not into her and it’s really stressful because I don’t want to hurt her again. After the break for Thanksgiving I’ve completely lost all motivation. During break all I did was watch reels and YouTube all day and eat junk. Now that’s all I’m still doing, I’m not getting out of bed all day, I’m not even showering. I’m just in my pajamas going from YouTube to eating cookies to watching reels to playing video games to sleeping. I’ve missed projects, homework’s, meetings, I’m screwed. I initially could’ve gotten all A’s now I’m at risk of failing my classes. I’m gonna lose my internship. I’m not in good shape anymore. I feel disgusting and worthless and for some reason I just can’t get started taking steps to get it together even though I want to sooooo bad. It’s currently 1130 and I just got up. I’m gonna miss class again. I’m gonna lose my housing, I want my life again. Any help or advice is very appreciated. I feel like I’m so lucky to have all this opportunity for once and don’t want to throw it all away. I’m the kind of person that when I stop doin something in my routine, everything goes to shit. Please help.
