@Evelyn, that sounds so familiar to me…
And it may be more than just ADD-related procrastination.
What you’re describing makes me think you might have a bit of depression too. Did your loss of motivation get worse during your recent difficulties at that driving job? I know from experience that my own mood is very affected by the situations I’m in.
In the years before I found my current job, there were times when I had such terrible depression that the only thing I had the energy to do, was lie on the couch and eat ice cream and cheezies all day.
Is there a counsellor you could talk to about this? Even calling a helpline, just to chat for a while, will make you feel better. And, if you feel you need more than that, don’t hesitate to talk to your doctor about it, or to ask the helpline to refer you to a low/no cost mental health clinic.
Most of all, remember: You are not alone. You are a wonderful person, and you deserve to have the help you need to feel better.
