I’ve completely lost motivation and don’t seem to truly care about anything. My grades will probably suck this semester, I’m still not even decided on a major. I hate my new job but it’s been 2 weeks, so if I quit now, I’m definitely a loser who can’t handle simple things. I probably only hate it because I don’t feel motivated to go anywhere or do anything . Also because I’m very anxious around people. I’ve called so many therapists and am constantly rejected or waitlisted. I’m so tired of it. And I don’t know what to do. I have no direction in life.:/

For years, this feeling had come in waves, but now it’s just completely consumed me. I’m drained. I feel bad that I am too because there are people working harder than me. I feel weak.

You are more motivated than you think . some people can't even get out of bed. You are working and studying thats a huge acheivement . i get that its hard and a struggle . give your job a chance it might get easier. Keep trying to get a therapist even though you have been let down. You really could do with speaking to someone . keep posting . we are here for you

((((ajisalone)))) I'm so sorry you're struggling. I can relate, I struggle with motivation as well Don't give up. Keep trying, one step at the time, and give yourself a reward everytime you complete some task. Keep looking for a therapist.
