I find it difficult to commit to a task. I procrastinate (or I use procrastination as an excuse for my laziness). I want to change because I'm losing too much sleep over this. I stay up all night, having done nothing during the day. I get an average of 4 hours of sleep a night. I end up daydreaming in class, which causes me to fall behind in lessons. I'M TRAPPED IN THIS CYCLE.
So, when you need to motivate yourself, what do you do? Who do you turn to? How do you MAKE yourself work to get things done?
This is honestly driving me up the wall and I KNOW I have to change, but the mere knowledge isn't compelling enough. I cannot turn to my friends or family. My friends, I don't want to bother - I've been slowly spiralling into this pit... and like, they seem to want to stay out and so I leave them be, and they leave me be. I have disappointed my parents for long enough and I don't want to attack them with this. I have promised a change. The school counsellor says that I am fine, just lazy. (He put it in nicer terms) I have only been to one session, and he says I am welcome to see him again, but that is rather awkward. I don't want to draw attention to myself... I just need to figure out HOW to get motivated... ><
Until this year, I was a really good student - bright, studious.
Now I am a wreck. First year as a senior. The stress has gotten to me because I got by in my junior years without having to work hard. This year is really important. I ruined this year by breaking up with my boyfriend at the beginning of term - 6 months ago. I am a perfectionist, and that just threw me off track. And because of that I'd fallen behind and it's been downhill since then.
ARskDTNIYDSHLI I'm rambling. Terribly sorry about the information overload. Perhaps you could offer suggestions about how to combat this. I'm sure I'm exaggerating the situation. SO all I have to do is figure out how to get motivated. And I'll be fine.
Thanks <3
