I hardly have any friends. If I could I'd play on the iPad all day. I mean, I can do it but a part of me wants to work hard, too
But there is no reward, no privilege
Setting priorities is my main issue.
Things I want to do - work on academy, create music, improve my social skills
However I can't manage to take care of my basic needs - sorting items, getting them, even eating is sometimes a problem with all the accumulated stress
Can anyone please help?

I wonder if you were set alarms for yourself so you could keep track of how long you have actually been doing something because sometines it feels like you have been doing something for hours but in reality it was on 20 minutes. Also you are overwhelming yourself by examining the whole picture all the time. That makes your goals seem daunting and almost unattainable. Begin by making a list of 3 things for the day. Those are the only 3 things you have to worry about. At the end of the day when you mark the last one as finished you will feel a sense of pride in what you accomplished for the day. Then the next day make a list of 4 things for the day. And each day progressing and before you realize it the whole list is done and you feel proud of yourself. Then should make another list pushing yourself a little more. After just a bit you will have adjusted your schedule to where you know you have things to do until getting all the things you had hoped to one day get done are all finished and you find more things to do. I hope its ok me giving you my suggestion. I have seen it work exceptionally well on a person that wasnt even motivated to help herself. Good luck.
