Mess

Does anyone become lazy when you have the feeling of having lots of stuff to do you don't want to do? If I have alot of work or have other things to do I dont want to, or even if I'm just worried, I seem to let my befroom become messy and leave things like clothes lying around on the floor. I don't want the room to be messy, and I don't want to be lazy, but it just happens, and I put off tidying and any thing else I have to do for ages.

Yes. Like right now, I have three small papers and one slightly larger paper that I need to write for a class, but instead of even beginning to get started on any of them, I decided to check this website instead. It's kind of bad; the more work I have, the less assertive I become.

yea it happens to me too. I also use the excuse that I always feel tired and lethargic. I do exercise and stuff but that doesn't energize me too much.

I'm always feeling like I'm missing out in my social life, that when I get to my work life, I don't feel like doing anything.

I guess also it's been a problem of leaving things to the end. I have just a huge mess that would take a multi-day project to clean up as it's just piled up. But also I need to get more organized. I dunno I'm working on it but I always feel like I don't have enough time, which is an excuse for something else of course.

I have a few bills like 300 dollars but I'm broke and I feel guilty askin money from my parents (they don't get mad, but I feel more and more like a waste everytime)

they were due on the 1st but right now its the 4th, I keep tellin myself its gettin better but I'm really not believing a word
 
It's so different today

Hmm. I don't know really. I think I am pretty damn lazy, but like I never do have ANYTHING to do. This sounds weird, but I like being told what to do. I wish people would tell me to do things, because then I would probably do them. I would probably just work all day long, because I have nothing else to do at all. I would never let my room become messy either, the messiness just bothers me. I never clean it though, but it never gets messy in the first place. I never have the excuse of "not having enough time" because I know I have ALLLLL the time in the freakin' world.

lol yeah I told my mom the same thing I said, "why can't someone just tell me what to do" I would get more stuff done. When I have to do things for myself I just don't want to.
 
yeah this is happening to me right now. I have a horribly messy bedroom but I've been so stressed out about life lately that I haven't had the will to do anything. I didn't even get up for work today, I phoned in and said I was sick

Yeah man bills are the worst. I moved into my own apartment a few months ago and have never been able to catch up on my bills. I owe around a few hundo and have $5 in my checking account. I also owe rent for the month but have no money. This brings a ton of stress into my life.

But yeah I will dirty my apartment to the point of it being unwalkable and I will spend one afternoon and just go at it and clean it really well and tell myself I will keep it clean. 2 days later it is a mess again.

Ugh! Tell me about it! I feel that everything is too much of an effort most of the time.

I find when I'm in the house by myself which rarely happens for long enough, I can function slightly better in a way and feel more relaxed. Partly because I can just do what I want or need to do for myself, with no added pressure to do things from anyone else, and can put things where I want them without someone else getting annoyed. Its hard to describe properly.

Thats true for me also.

But now that i've got some free time I've been fixing up the house and stuff now I want to really fix things.

When I have too many things to do, I either become too lazy to do anything or too lazy and unmotivated and depressed to do what I need to do. I just sit there in my dark room, become a couch potato with a bag of tostitos for a day or two, forget about all of my responsibilities and end up feeling worse after its over.

Having too much work makes me quite sleepy.

It's a good feeling when you have a lot to do and get things done, giving you time to be able to focus on things you want to do.

I'm like a potato too... I have to write graduation dissertation... I have only ~3 weeks left, just sitting like a potato and not doing anything. I have to do a lot of other things, but i'm just sitting on bed with laptop and writing to this forum. Any good ideas how to ovecome this?

I am the same way. I usually keep my room clean... and when I get this way I just put anything anywhere... but its also because now I have to share my room and I hate it!! I cant have my own privacy and I have no one to put anything... and i have been thinking about getting rid of some things.

I can sooo relate to everything in this thread! I have very little motivation, and expend all of the little energy I have in mentally beating myself up for being lazy ::(: It's really hard to get out of bed in the mornings, and when I finally do (sometimes in the afternoon) I tell myself I'll just check my email and websites quickly before doing something productive... then I realise five hours have gone by!!! It's terrible...
