What the fuck is wrong with me, /adv/?
I feel like my discipline has completely degraded. I can barely bring myself to do the things that I have to do anymore. I'm completely disinterested in everything that relates to school and my future as a member of the workforce. My friends and peers are all constantly applying to exciting internships and programs, and I've just decided to take a summer class and work at my shitty old desk job at home to avoid having to exert any effort searching for a better opportunity.
I'm scared that this will get out of control. What should I do to start getting my shit together?
