As of late, I am finding it to be incredibly difficult to become motivated or focused on anything. Last year, it would be easy for me to get home, and work for hours on end, and I was extremely productive. However, this year, most notably this semester, I am the exact opposite. I procrastinate to the extremes... I am no longer starting my work when I get home, but at horrible hours (even around midnight). This has thrown off my sleep pattern, and I'm always tired. I even have trouble motivating myself to make phone calls that must be made, or send e-mails that must be sent. Everything just seems to be too tedious. I feel lazy, and I don't know how I got to be this way. I'm definitely not depressed. I'm at the top of the world (except for this problem of course). I'm not overworked, as I have an unusually easy semester. I have no idea what is going on. I want to go back to my old self!!! I don't want my grades to suffer because of this, and more importantly, I don't want my health or relationships to suffer.
I'm going to book an appoinment with my doctor to talk about this. I was just wondering if any of you have any ideas about what is wrong with me? Any similar experiences? If any of you have trouble focusing or becoming motivated, what do you do? Is there some sort of prescription medicine you take? Non-prescription? Any disorders you know about? I will discuss all this with my doc, but I don't want to be totally in the dark when I do so. I want to be able to make suggestions, and help find the best possible solution to the problem. Thanks in advance, and good luck to all of you who are waiting for acceptances, and to those of you who will be writing the MCAT soon. Congrats to all of you who already have acceptances!!!
(Also, do any of you know why I can't indent? Is there a trick to it?)
