No Motivation.

[Sntl]

I have a lack of motivation to do anything and I'm sad all the time. I talk to some people about it, but it never helps.

I hate myself for that reason.

My grades have dropped to F's and D's from A's and B's and I'm in Honor and AP classes. I just don't want to do anything and I face the consequences because of it. You are told to do well so you can get into a good college so you can get money so you can retire with a lot of money. It seems like that is the base of life, money. I just don't want to be a part of it. Other kids march on to great colleges and be successful and I have the potential to do so as well... but I don't want to... I feel like this world is hopeless and it won't change, and that reason makes me want to give up. What reason do I have to go on?

My parents don't know what to do with me as nothing will motivate me to do well in school. They can take away every possession I own and punish me however they want, but it doesn't change anything, I just don't care. I don't care that anything I used to care about got taken away, it doesn't affect me.

I'm so confused with my problems... I don't really know what to do and it seems like no one else is having these types of problems at my school.

How about you guys?

Hey sweetpea. Sounds like you're suffering from a serious case of depression(lol way to point out the obvious.) I spent a lot of my life just like you, unmotivated, uncaring and apathetic. The only reason why I did so well in school was because I feared the repercussions and I suppose there was an innate desire to be loved and to be perfect.

Haha there I go talking about myself again :tongue: Now, to you. Money is so important because with it, you're generally free. You can mostly do as you wish and live life comfortably. You may feel as if there is nothing to live for now but I promise you that can and most likely will change.

It's very hard to be motivated when you feel so weighed down and hopeless but you don't have to feel this way forever. Maybe you're just sick of the same old thing. You're young and you've yet to discover yourself. Try new things, even if you do not wish to because who knows, you may find something or someone you love along the way. Tr

Try to laugh. See the humour and beauty in everything. Be lighthearted and find motivation. Set goals. Live. Don't wait 20 years to regret what you could've done now.
