Hi, I’m 24 and I have a problem that I can't bring myself to do anything I’m supposed to, – like chores from the academy I study at or work. It has always been this way, like I never did anything I needed for school – and only in the last moment or night before an exam. In high school I managed ok but now it’s not enough in the academy and each time I get threatened to be kicked out, and only under that pressure, not knowing if this time will be the last chance, I do what I have to (too late and only as good as the little time I have left to do it …). I try making myself to do my chores but it’s like my laziness gets worse and worse. I do like what I’m studying and I think it’s the right thing for me. I don’t know what to do with my self. I make myself stay at home (as if grounding myself), but without too much stress – I never do anything.
Ask your parents to kick you out of their home and stop supporting you with money. Get a job to support yourself. This will make you interested in studying again.
Laziness can also be a symptom of depression. Treatment for depression can sometimes also help against laziness.
