I don't know why but the problem is getting worse and worse. I can't focus, I'm unmotivated, every time I try to sit down and be creative (it's part of my career path) I'm distracted by social media, snacks, chores, or literally just my own thoughts. If I try REALLY hard I can get a little bit of work done, but I have to be listening to music.
I'm 24 and I need to get my life together...it's almost like I'm getting dumber, not smarter. I'm forgetting important things now too. I almost lost my job at a bank I clean because I forgot to lock the door. I'm constantly fatigued, or my mind is so energetic that I can't sit still. Meanwhile I see everyone in my life making big accomplishments and working hard, and I keep beating myself up for being lazy.
I sincerely WANT to accomplish things but my brain HATES me. It wants me to waste my life!
