I am incapable of anything and I am the only one who could change this but since I don't know how to do ANYTHING anymore, I'm just helpless and don't know what to do! And the longer I don't do anything, the more I loose the skills and the knowledge I had before!
This is a vicious circle and I am the only one who ould change my situation but I can't because I am incapable of it!
this is no life anymore! I am incapable of everything! How am I supposed to lead a life? Every day of my life is a waste of time and I hate just wasting my life away and doing nothing while I become more and more dump and more and more unhealthy physically! But I don't know how to do anything! My head is just empty, I'm totally clueless and I fail at everything!
I cannot even accomplish one single task! I had to write an academic assignment for University since months and I didn't even start yet, and basically my time for this is over now! Why do I not know how to do this anymore?! I have done those things before and was able to do them!
When I was still at school, I had been one of the best students and absolutely knew how to do things like that! And now I have no clue anymore ! How is that possible??!!
And in my leisure time I don't know what to do with myself either!
What is this?! How can someone become like this?!
I can't stand this anymore! I can't live like this anymore!

It seems you've been through events which have shifted your attention from your usual doings.
It may be a matter of questioning yourself - "why do I need this skill right now?"
Let's say you love skiing, but you accidentally lose a leg - will you struggle skiing, or understand that it will most likely not be possible anymore and may need to find a different hobby?
Sounds harsh, I know. But mental conditions, unlike a physical loss, are much more treatable, manageable and curable.
After curing whatever situation you're in, you may be able to resume to your skill, or perhaps even adopt a better one. But again, a question which should be asked is - what for?
For instance, I want to cycle. Why? Because it's one of my favorite sports, and the purpose of it is feeling good and renewed, and improve my health.
Another example - I want to expand my aquarium hobby. Why? Because I've always loved animals, and want them decorating my life. They also have a calming effect, especially for anxiety. Had a friend who's had anxiety, and whenever she looked at my aquarium, she'd be in a calm I've almost never seen in her.
Gaming is also an activity which can help me deal with stress.
